Supine Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy
Journal of Endourology, 2022Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) has evolved many a fold and was originally described in supine position by Valdivia et al. In this position, the direction of the tract is posterior and thus preserves a low pressure in the renal pelvis, and thereby reduces the risk of fluid absorption and allows spontaneous clearance/washout of fragments by gravity ...

Summary— Percutaneous nephrolithotomy is becoming an established technique for the surgical management of renal stones. In a series of 48 patients treated by this method a success rate of 89% was achieved after an initial learning phase. The technique is suitable to be practised in any Department of Urology.
