Percutaneous nephrostomy for endopyelotomy [PDF]

American Journal of Roentgenology, 1987
Percutaneous full-thickness incision and stenting of the ureteropelvic junction (endopyelotomy) relieved obstruction in 33 (87%) of 38 patients treated over a 2-year period. Proper placement of the percutaneous nephrostomy tract through a posterior middle calyx and of a guidewire across the ureteropelvic junction is necessary in order to gain access to
