Abstract: (4827 Views)

We report a patient with pain, abdominal palpable mass and a history of previous open renal stone surgery. Imaging studies showed a right pelvic kidney with multiple calyceal stones. We aim to describe the successful management through laparoscopic assisted percutaneous nephrolithotomy with ultrasonography (PCNL) in ectopic pelvic kidney, stressing that this method is a minimally invasive therapeutic option in such cases; especially ultrasound was used for locating the stones and getting access to the collecting system instead of the fluoroscopy.
