    AbstractBackground and Objectives: To clinically validate the computed tomography (CT)-based three-dimension (3D) model for treatment planning and intraoperative navigation of ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) complicated with renal calculi. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively collected the data of 26 patients with UPJO and renal calculi who were surgically treated in our institution from January 2019 to December 2021. Before surgery, 3D models based on preoperative CT scans were constructed in all patients. Additionally, the patients were divided into three groups according to the results of 3D models, distinguished by different treatment of renal calculi, that is, left untreated (1), pyelolithotomy (2), and endoscopic lithotomy (3). The quantitative analysis of renal calculi parameters, and perioperative and follow-up data were compared. Results: The mean number of involved renal calyces (p = 0.041), and the mean maximum cross-sectional area (p = 0.036) of renal stones were statistically different among the three groups. There were no significant differences among the three groups in the mean operative time, mean estimated blood loss, mean pararenal draining time, and mean hospital stay. The intraoperative stone clearance rates were 100% (11/11) and 77.8% (7/9) in group 2 and group 3, respectively. The trends of increased estimated glomerular filtration rate and decreased creatinine on the average levels after surgery were observed, although these changes were not statistically significant. At a mean follow-up of 19.4 ± 6.4 months, the overall surgical success rate of the UPJO was 96.2% (25/26), and the overall success rate of renal calculi removal was 80.8% (21/26). Renal stones in 66.7% (4/6) of patients in group 1 spontaneously passed out. Conclusions: Preoperative 3D CT models have exact clinical value in the surgical planning and intraoperative navigation of UPJO patients complicated with renal calculi.
