Abstract:
The article presents the results of 42 retrograde nephrolithotripsy (RNLT) performed on 38 patients with staghorn nephrolithiasis. The staghorn cacculi SN-2 were most frequently indication for the intervention. 3 months after surgery, full exemption of the kidney from the fragments was observed in 85,6% of patients. RNLT is an effective and safe treatment for patients with staghorn stones with relatively low need for additional procedures. RNLT allows to reduce postoperative hospital stay and recovery period of patients.
