“…Some related factors like size, number, location, composition of stone, renal anatomy, and patients clinical factors all come in consideration in conjunction with the morbidity associated with various surgical modalities and the availability of equipment before the preferred surgical approach is selected. 2 Percutaneous nephrolithotomy, as a primary procedure, was first described by Fernstrom and Johanson in 1976. 3 Subsequent report on percutaneous nephrolithotomy from the Mayo Clinic 4 and the University of Minnesota 5 and from West Germany 6 and England 7 established percutaneous nephrolithotomy and refined the technique.…”

<p class="Abstract">The study has been designed to compare the outcome of percutaneous nephrolithotomy with (Group A) or without nephrostomy tube (Group B) for the management of renal stone disease. JJ stents were given to all cases of both groups. Comparison of outcome between groups shows that urinary leakage time was significantly longer in Group B than that in Group A (24.0 ± 6.2 vs 7.3 ± 3.9 hours; p<0.001). Visual analogue pain score was also significantly high in Group B than in Group A (4.7 ± 0.8 vs 2.4 ± 0.5; p<0.035). Patients in Group B stayed in hospital on an average 4 days, while the Group A patients stayed in hospital on an average 2.5 days (p<0.029). The mean hemoglobin decrease in 24 hours in Group B and in Group A (0.5 ± 0.4 and 0.5 ± 0.4 respectively) did not show any significant difference (p<0.895). In conclusion, percutaneous nephrolithotomy without nephrostomy tube can be practiced in the management of selective cases of renal stones diseases.</p>
