Abstract:
A retrospective study was conducted on 10 patients who had undergone extended pyelolithotomy for staghorn calculi. There were some complications which were such as retained stones in 3 cases, urine leak 1 case, pneumothorax 1 case, but this surgical technique was relatively simple and easy for patients with staghorn calculi disease.
