چکیده
Resumen.OBJETIVO: Presentar el tratamiento percutáneo del divertículo calicial asociado a litiasis de localización posterior y resaltar la importancia que ha cobrado en los últimos tiempos el tratamiento endourológico, mínimamente invasivo, para este tipo de patología. MÉTODOS: Debido a la presencia de litiasis múltiple intradiverticular y sintomatología infecciosa recurrente asociada, se decide realización de nefrolitotomía percutánea (NLPC). Tras extracción de las litiaisis, se procede a la obliteración de infundíbulo calicial mediante electrocoagulación con resector y electrodo “rollerball”.

Percutaneous Holmium Laser Fulguration of Calyceal Diverticula
Introduction. Calyceal diverticular stones are uncommon findings that represent a challenge in their treatment, due to the technical difficulty in accessing the diverticulum, and the high risk of their recurrence. Current percutaneous technique for calyceal diverticular stones involves establishing a renal access, clearing the stone, and fulguration of the diverticular lining with a roller-ball...

OBJECTIVE Tubeless percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) has become an option for treatment of renal stone disease, though no clearly defined algorithm exists for selection of patients suitable to tubeless PCNL. We investigated our experience with tubeless PCNL to evaluate its safety and efficacy for cases of complex renal calculi. PATIENTS AND METHODS Retrospective review of all tubeless PCNLs...

With the development of techniques for percutaneous access and equipment to disintegrate calculi, percutaneous nephroscopic surgery is currently used by many urologists and is the procedure of choice for the removal of large renal calculi and the management of diverticula, intrarenal strictures, and urothelial cancer. Although it is more invasive than shock wave lithotripsy and retrograde urete...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of percutaneous access site on the success and complication rates of isolated calyceal stones. MATERIAL AND METHODS We retrospectively evaluated 2700 patients who underwent percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL) in our clinic between October 2002 and August 2014. We selected only the patients with isolated lower, middle or upper calyceal stones and we grouped the ...
متن کاملCalyceal diverticulum - a mimic of different pathologies on multiple imaging modalities.
Calyceal diverticula are outpouchings of a renal calyx. Often found incidentally on radiological imaging, they are generally benign and usually asymptomatic, although complications include infection and stone formation. More importantly, calyceal diverticula may mimic other potentially more serious pathology on imaging, such as renal tumour or abscess on ultrasound or computed tomography and ev...
