Abstract

Objective To evaluate intrasinusal pyelolithotomy for giant staghorn calculi. Methods The data of 22 cases treated with intrasinusal pyelolithotomy were analysed. Results Lithotomy was successful in all cases with the average operation time 116 minutes.Blood transfusion during the procedure was required in 8 cases with an everage of 550 ml.Postoperative examination of 12 cases with B ultrasound revealed residual calculus in 3,the diameters being less than 0.8 cm. Conclusions The procedure for giant staghorn calculi was easy,safe,and effective with renal parenchyma intact.
