Abstract
- Management of complete staghorn kidney stones is a urological challenge. Due to the high recurrence rates, complete stone clearance is of crucial importance in staghorn stones. Anatrophic nehrolithotomy is an option in cases where, less invasive procedures such as percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) and extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) cannot achieve complete clearance in a reasonable number of sessions. Laparoscopy can duplicate the open technique, and provide the inherent advantages of minimally invasive procedure [1–3].
