Evaluation of the effect of Bernoulli maneuver on operative time during mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy: A prospective randomized study

Abstract: PurposeTo evaluate the effect of ‘Bernoulli maneuver’ (bringing the access sheath to horizontal plane) on operative time and stone free rates in patients undergoing mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL).Materials and MethodsAll consecutive patients with a solitary kidney stone undergoing a mini-PCNL between 2015 and 2016 were included into this study. Patients were randomized either to standard prone or control (C) group patients or to tilted prone with ‘Bernoulli maneuver’ group (B) patients. Pre-, intra-,… Show more

“…Percutaneous nephrolithotomy was introduced by Fernstorn and Jhonson in 1976 and became a standard surgical procedure for renal calculi 3 . Jackman et al introduced the Minimally Invasive Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy, which gained popularity because of lower morbidity compared to Conventional percutaneous nephrolithotomy due to the use of miniaturized instruments 4 .…”
