Ureteroscopy-assisted retrograde nephrostomy for percutaneous nephrolithotomy after urinary diversion.

Abstract

A 33-year-old male with an ileal conduit was referred to our department for the treatment of left renal calculi. After inserting a ureteral access sheath, a ureteroscopy-assisted retrograde nephrostomy was made. Percutaneous nephrolithotomy was successfully achieved using this nephrostomy.
