Abstract:
Minimally invasive surgery is rapidly evolving due to new technology and techniques designed to improve patient outcomes. We report a case of a young woman with an atrophic kidney secondary to reflux nephropathy, suffering from recurrent episodes of pyelonephritis. She was treated successfully using laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (LESS). We also present a review of the literature.
