We present a case report of successful management of ureteropelvice junction avulsion during ureteroscopy successfully managed with simultaneous percutaneous nephrolithotomy and early endoscopic ureteral realignment.

Abstract Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) has been widely applied in the treatment of isolated renal stones recent years. However, its safety and effectiveness for patients with remains controversial. In this work, “nephrolithiasis”, “stones”, "renal", “nephrolithotomy”, “percutaneous”, “PCNL”, “solitary”, “single”, “kidney” were taken as key words to search relevant studies PCNL solitary ki...

BACKGROUND Injury to the spleen is a recognized complication during percutaneous renal access due to the close anatomical relationship of the spleen and the left kidney. However, transsplenic renal access is a rare complication of percutaneous nephrolithotomy and can also result in considerable morbidity, often requiring emergent splenectomy. METHODS We present our experience with splenic inj...

Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is a common urological procedure for the treatment of renal pelvis and upper ureteric stones. It is associated with a number of different complications which can be broadly divided into access and nephrolithotomy related complications. Whilst reported, splenic injury is an unusual and rare complication. We describe the management of a trans-splenic access ass...

OBJECTIVE To compare post-operative outcomes between tubeless and conventional large-bore nephrostomy tube drainage following percutaneous nephrolithotomy in children. METHODS The study comprised 54 patients under 14 years of age who were undergoing percutaneous nephrolithotomy at 60 renal units and met the inclusion criteria. They were randomised to placement of a 16F nephrostomy tube (Group...

OBJECTIVE To present our experience in surgical management of urolithiasis in patients after urinary diversion. PATIENTS AND METHODS Twenty patients with urolithiasis after urinary diversion received intervention. Percutaneous nephrolithotomy, percutaneous based antegrade ureteroscopy with semi-rigid or flexible ureteroscope, transurethral reservoir lithotripsy, percutaneous pouch lithotripsy...
