Özet
Introduction: Kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) are the leading novel biomarkers used efficiently in acute kidney injury (AKI). The levels of these biomarkers increase especially in the early period of nephrotoxic and ischemic renal damage. In this study, we aimed to investigate the clinical importance of NGAL and KIM-1 biomarkers used in the effective evaluation of kidney functions in patients with acute unilateral obstructive stone disease (AUOSD) in the management of endoscopic surgery. Materials and Methods: We prospectively included patients who underwent endoscopic surgery due to AUOSD between January 2018 and December 2019. Urine KIM-1 and NGAL values of the patients were measured preoperative period, postoperative 4th h, and postoperative 7th day. The patients were evaluated according to the location and size of the stone, the degree of renal hydronephrosis, the duration of the operation, complications, and JJ stent placement. Results: The study enrolled 50 patients. Urinary KIM-1/Cr and urinary NGAL/Cr ratios were higher in postoperative 4th h than in others (p < 0.001). Also, we found that urinary KIM-1/Cr and urinary NGAL/Cr ratios with Grade 2 and higher hydronephrosis were statistically higher than Grade 0-1 hydronephrosis (p < 0.001 and p: 0.042, respectively). Additionally, a preoperative urinary KIM-1 value of 1.24 ng/mL had a sensitivity of 78% and a specificity of 63% to predict the presence of hydronephrosis. When urine KIM-1 and NGAL results were compared with surgery time, stone size and location, serum creatinine (sCr) value, and Post-Ureteroscopic Lesion Scale grade, the difference was not statistically significant. Postoperative 7th day NGAL/Cr and KIM-1/Cr ratios were statistically higher in those with JJ stents placed (p: 0.03 and p: 0.004, respectively). Conclusion: KIM-1 and NGAL can be used in our assessment of renal function in patients with AUOSD, even if sCr is normal. Also, these biomarkers can predict the presence of hydronephrosis. It can be helpful in determining the time of surgical treatment, as well as providing information in the follow-up of patients with JJ stents after treatment.
