Objective To study the characteristics and diagnosis of renal sinus lipomatosis (RSL) complicated with renal staghorn calculi, and report our preliminary experience on percutaneous nephrolithotripsy for the disease. Methods A total of 547 patients with complex renal calculi were admitted to our hospital from January 2005 to June 2007. In 2 of them, RSL complicated with renal staghorn calculi was diagnosed by B-ultrasonography, CT, and MRI. Both the patients were female, aged 42 and 82 years respectively. B-ultrasonography-guided percutaneous nephrolithotripsy was performed on the two patients without removing the kidneys.Results Totally, 7 ml and 5 ml of stones were removed respectively from the two patients by percutaneous nephrolithotripsy. No retained calculi were found by KUB performed one week postoperation. Biopsy of the submucosal fat obtained from the renal pelvis during the operation showed hyperplasia and fibrosis of fatty tissues and inflammatory effusion. The patients were followed up for half a year, during which no recurrence of renal calculi occurred, and no abnormal fatty tissues were found at the renal sinus or surrounding the kidney. Conclusions Imaging examination is valuable for the diagnosis of RSL. B-ultrasonography-guided percutaneous nephrolithotripsy is safe and effective for RSL complicated with renal calculi.
