Ultra-mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) versus standard PCNL: A randomised clinical trial
Objective: To assess the effectiveness and advantages of ultra-mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy (UM-PCNL) versus standard PCNL (S-PCNL), as one of the most important differences between the various PCNL techniques is the size of the renal access, which contributes to the broad spectrum of complicat...

Patients and methods: This clinical randomised trial was conducted in 2016. In all, 70 patients with renal or upper ureteric stones of 10â20â¯mm in diameter, who were candidates for PCNL, were divided equally into two groups. Group A, underwent UM-PCNL using a 9.8-F ureteroscope through a 16-F sheath; and Group B, underwent S-PCNL using a 24-F nephroscope through a 30-F sheath. The stones were fragmented by pneumatic lithotripsy. Any perioperative complications and need for analgesia were recorded, and postoperative pain was assessed in both groups using a visual analogue scale (VAS). Results: There were statistically significant differences in postoperative haemoglobin values, haemoglobin drop, transfusion rate, duration of hospitalisation and postoperative VAS pain score between the groups (Pâ¯<â¯0.05). There were no significant differences in operation time, need for auxiliary procedures or stone-free rate. Conclusion: A minimally invasive UM-PCNL using a 9.8-F ureteroscope can play an important role in the treatment of symptomatic renal and upper ureteric stones of <20â¯mm in diameter with lesser blood loss, duration of hospitalisation, need of transfusion, and postoperative pain compared with S-PCNL.
