If left untreated, this blockage leads to hydronephrosis, acute kidney impairment, and interruptions in cancer therapy. When internal ureteral stenting fails or is not possible, percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN), which involves inserting a small drainage tube through the back directly into the renal collecting system, is required to decompress the kidney and preserve renal function.\n\nTraditionally, PCN is performed under fluoroscopy, exposing patients and healthcare staff to ionizing radiation. Ultrasound guidance provides continuous real-time visualization of the renal structures while completely eliminating radiation hazards.\n\nThe primary purpose of this prospective interventional study is to evaluate the technical success, safety, and complication rates of ultrasound-guided percutaneous nephrostomy in oncology patients presenting with urinary tract obstruction.\n\nParticipants in this study undergo ultrasound-guided PCN under local anesthesia using the standard Seldinger technique to place an 8Fr pigtail drainage catheter. The study evaluates the technical success rate of the procedure, procedural and post-procedural complications (such as bleeding or sepsis), recovery of kidney function measured by changes in serum creatinine levels, and hospital length of stay.",[56,57,58,59,60],"Obstructive Uropathy","Hydronephrosis","Ureteral Obstruction","Acute Kidney Injury","Neoplasms",[62,63,64,65,66,67],"Percutaneous Nephrostomy","Ultrasound Guidance","Interventional Radiology","Renal Decompression","Malignant Ureteral Obstruction","Seldinger Technique","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-09-28",{"date":71,"type":72},"2026-10-02","ACTUAL",{"date":74,"type":51},"2026-11",{"date":76,"type":51},"2027-12",{"name":5,"class":6}]
