Percutaneous nephrolithotomy is a new endoscopic method, being applied and effective in the treatment of kidney stones and ureteral stones. Percutaneous nephrolithotomy is a minimally invasive surgical method, the stones will be crushed and be sucked out.
Advantages of endoscopic percutaneous nephrolithotomy:
It is a minimally invasive treatment for kidney stones or ureteral stones, because with just a skin incision and a small tunnel into the kidney, the stones in the kidney or ureter will be crushed into small pieces and removed, which helps patients feel less pain, lost less blood, does not damage the kidney like open surgery. On the contrary, it helps to maximize the function of the kidney with stones.
The small incision not only ensures the aethetics but also reduces the risk of infection compared to the conventional surgical method.
Stones removal rate is higher than conventional open surgery method. The use of nephroscope, ultrasound and C-arm right at the operating table helps doctors easily observe and clean stones during surgery, minimizing the number of stones left after surgery.
Less damage to the kidney, the effect of percutaneous kidney stone lithotripsy on renal function is <1%, while open surgery to remove coral stones can cause over 30% loss of kidney function due to the incision on the renal parenchyma.
Hospital staying time is short, patients recover quickly and work normally soon.
