Abstract EN

We report the first case of totally tubeless outpatient percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL).

Our patient was discharged home safely less than 4 hours following uncomplicated PCNL with no nephrostomy tube, ureteral stent, or urethral catheter.

Follow-up the next day in clinic confirmed that the procedure was successful, as the patient was clinically well and stone free.

To our knowledge, this is the first case report of totally tubeless (no nephrostomy, no ureteral stent) PCNL performed on a truly outpatient basis.
