The visual percutaneous nephrolithotomy versus the conventional percutaneous nephrolithotomy in treatment for renal stone.

CONCLUSIONS: We found that visual PCNL was a safe and efficacious treatment for renal stones that may be considered as an alternative to conventional PCNL, especially in patients with mild hydronephrosis. Further prospective randomized controlled trials are needed to confirm the results of this study . PMID: 31287255 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
