Percutaneous Treatment of Varicocele
Urologia Internationalis, 2003Varicocele is a common finding in adolescents and adult men. Its association with male infertility has been well documented: varicoceles are reported to be present in 20–40% of infertile men. It has been demonstrated that varicocele correction leads to an improvement in the quality of semen in most cases.

Percutaneous Transhepatic Cholangiography
Postgraduate Medicine, 1973Percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography is useful in properly selected patients. It visualizes the location and extent of the pathologic process in patients with obstructive jaundice and permits decompression of the liver for improved function and easier surgery. Occasionally, it reveals a normal biliary tree, which indicates intrahepatic cholestasis

Since 1981, we have been conducting research on percutaneous transhepatic cholecystoscopy through the sinus tract of percutaneous cholecystostomy and this method has been employed in 72 patients with gallbladder diseases. We have already reported on percutaneous transhepatic cholecystoscopy and its usefulness for the diagnosis of early gallbladder ...

Scandinavian Journal of Urology and Nephrology, 2000
The authors present a 12-year (1986-98) study of a new procedure called percutaneous nephropexy (PCNP). This procedure was performed on 51 renal ptosis patients at two urological departments (in Pakistan and Hungary) with satisfactory results. The idea for PCNP was adapted from the observation that after drain insertion following nephrostomy a scar is ...

1985
Percutaneous removal of renal and ureteral stones was attempted in 19 cases through an operatively established nephrostomy tract and in 181 cases after primary percutaneous puncture. In the latter group failure of the technique or residual stones required surgical intervention in 15 cases. The residual stone rate was 9/19 and 13/168.

AbstractTracheostomy is a commonly performed surgical procedure in intensive care units (ICUs). Over the past three decades, there has been a substantial body of evidence to suggest percutaneous tracheostomy (PT) is at least as safe as surgical tracheostomy (ST) in the hands of trained clinicians.

Nursing Standard, 2004
Percutaneous vertebroplasty is a minimally invasive procedure used to stabilise vertebral compression fractures caused by osteoporosis, haemangioma, myeloma, metastases and bone cysts. Acrylic bone cement is injected into the vertebral body to relieve pain and structurally reinforce the fracture.

European Urology, 1983
Pelvi-ureteric junction obstruction has been treated in 3 patients using a percutaneous modification of the Davis intubated ureterostomy technique. A 10-French tube is introduced into the obstructed upper ureter through a percutaneous nephrostomy puncture. Full thickness incision of the upper ureter and pelvi-ureteric junction is then carried out using

Urologic Clinics of North America, 2005
Neuromodulation for pelvic floor dysfunction has evolved from central sacral stimulation, a relatively invasive, experimental procedure, to percutaneous peripheral neurostimulation, which is both minimally invasive and well-tolerated by patients. Multiple series have now reported consistent positive results for varied manifestations of pelvic floor ...

Percutaneous epiphysiodesis has the advantages of relatively little postoperative pain and excellent cosmesis. With the aid of image-intensification fluoroscopy, it is safe, effective, relatively easy to perform, and compares favorably with the traditional alternative procedures. No complications were encountered in 12 patients.
