Percutaneous nephrostomy in paediatrics
Clinical Radiology, 1987Percutaneous nephrostomy has been performed on 18 kidneys in 16 children with an age range of 1 day old to 14 years. The indications and techniques for percutaneous nephrostomy are described, the results are documented, and the effects of the procedure on the management of these patients are discussed.

Percutaneous pigtail nephrostomy
Urology, 1979Practicing urologists have become more familiar with the use of angiographic equipment and techniques and proficient in their application to percutaneous nephrostomy. The advantage of pigtail catheters for that purpose is noted. Modification of available vascular equipment applicable to percutaneous nephrostomy is discussed, and a new standardized kit ...

Retrograde Percutaneous Nephrostomy
Urologic Clinics of North America, 1988Retrograde percutaneous nephrostomy puncture to aid in stone removal is a safe and acceptable alternative to antegrade techniques. For urologists with expertise in endoscopic instrumentation and technique, it is easy to learn and does not require the presence of a skilled interventional radiologist.

The advantages of percutaneous nephrostomy include (1) achieving rapid, safe drainage of an obstructed collecting system with use of local anesthesia and sedation rather than general anesthesia, and (2) facilitating use of antegrade pyelography under fluoroscopic guidance to determine the cause of the obstruction.

Percutaneous nephrostomy in pyonephrosis
Urologic Radiology, 1989A series of 76 pyonephrotic kidneys in 73 patients were drained by percutaneous nephrostomy (PN) tube and examined to evaluate the contribution of this technique to the treatment of pyonephrosis. In 71 patients, clinical symptoms disappeared 24-48 h after the procedure. Two patients died from sepsis subsequent to anuria and underlying malignancy.

Percutaneous nephrostomy — Technique
Urologic radiology, 1981Percutaneous nephrostomy is increasingly used for temporary relief of upper urinary tract obstruction. The technique described involves the use of angiographic catheters and guides, and will provide drainage for several weeks or months. The patient is placed in the prone oblique position after intravenous contrast to opacify the kidneys.

Acta Radiologica. Diagnosis, 1980
During a 6-year-period percutaneous nephrostomy has been used for supravesical urinary diversion in 115 patients and 132 individual kidneys. The procedure proved to be a safe and effective alternative to operative nephrostomy in patients with urinary obstruction but may be used also in other urologic conditions.
