    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Medical Imaging
    • Surgical Techniques

    Background:

    • Percutaneous nephropyelostomy is a crucial procedure for urinary tract drainage.
    • Existing techniques may have limitations in terms of efficiency and patient comfort.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe and evaluate a modified percutaneous nephropyelostomy technique.
    • To assess the feasibility of using dynamic ultrasound and a novel catheter system.

    Main Methods:

    • A modified percutaneous nephropyelostomy was performed in 33 patients.
    • Dynamic ultrasound with a sector-scanner and a needle guide unit was used for puncture.
    • A wide-bore catheter was initially inserted, followed by replacement with a balloon catheter for drainage.
