- W2018825686 abstract "Fungal sepsis after ureteroscopy (URS) is rarely reported. We report on 2 cases of acute fungemia that developed after routine ureteroscopic stone manipulation in patients with advanced liver cirrhosis. This represents a unique and high-risk population, and, to our knowledge, these are the first such cases reported.We performed a retrospective review of the medical records of 2 patients with Child-Pugh class B and C liver cirrhosis who had undergone ureteroscopy (URS) and holmium laser lithotripsy for obstructing ureteral calculi.The treated stones measured 10 mm and 12 mm and were at the right ureteropelvic junction and left ureterovesical junction, respectively. Both patients had had indwelling ureteral stents in place for 1 and 2 months before URS plus holmium laser lithotripsy, with negative preoperative urine cultures. Each procedure was uncomplicated, and a ureteral stent was left in situ in each case. Within 12 hours of URS, each patient became tachycardic, hypotensive, and febrile. Blood, urine (proximal to the stone), and stone cultures were positive for Candida albicans in both patients. They were both successfully treated with intravenous fluconazole and subsequently discharged from the hospital on postoperative day 12 and 13, respectively.Patients with advanced liver disease appear to be at greater risk of fungal sepsis after otherwise uncomplicated URS and stone manipulation. Consideration should be given to prophylactic antifungal therapy, in addition to the standard antibacterial prophylaxis for such procedures." @default.
