Abstract EN
We present the treatment of lower pole stones of a 62-year-old male patient with a history of open partial nephrectomy due to renal angiomyolipoma and renal stones.
He was successfully treated with micropercutaneous nephrolithotomy technique under spinal anesthesia in spite of fibrotic and scar tissue due to previous open surgery.
The patient was stone-free and was discharged after a 24-hour hospitalization period.
There is not any published report of micropercutaneous nephrolithotomy in a partial nephrectomized kidney before.
In this report, we suggest that microperc technique may be considered for challenging conditions in case of failed retrograde intrarenal surgery.
