Description of Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy:


What is Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PNL)?

This is the preferred procedure for removing large kidney stones. The operative technique has had constant evolution leading to increased success rates and decreased complications, since its introduction in 1976. This invasive procedure involves entering the kidney through anincision (up to about 1cm) from the back. A nephroscope (a small fiber optic camera) and other miniature instruments are threaded in through the hole.
