Percutaneous nephrolithotomy: technique

World Journal of Urology, 2017
Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is considered to be the first line of treatment for large renal stones. Though PCNL comes with higher morbidity, its efficacy is unbeaten by other minimally invasive modalities. However, potential complications, such as bleeding, occur.

Complications of percutaneous nephrolithotomy [PDF]

American Journal of Roentgenology, 1987
Of 582 patients who underwent percutaneous nephrolithotomy, 4% had complications. The most common complications were fever (23%) and bleeding necessitating transfusion (12%). Extravasation was seen in 7% of patients and transient ureteral obstruction in 6%. Other complications included pneumothorax or hydrothorax, pneumonia/atelectasis, paralytic ileus,

Ureteroscopy-assisted percutaneous kidney access made easy: first clinical experience with a novel navigation system using electromagnetic guidance (IDEAL Stage 1) [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Puncture of the renal collecting system represents a challenging step in percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). Limitations related to the use of standard fluoroscopic-based and ultrasound-based maneuvers have been recognized.

Supine versus prone position in percutaneous nephrolithotomy: a systematic review and meta-analysis

F1000Research, 2020
Background: The decision for using supine or prone position in percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is still debatable. The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety profile of the supine and prone position when performing PCNL.
