[Percutaneous nephrostolithotomy. Technic and learning curve]
Abstract
The closed controlled manipulation of the urinary tract (endourology) has provided rapid advances in urologic therapy. Various methods are available for percutaneous stone removal. After 300 p.c. nephrostolithotomies we present the 'learning curve' leading to our technique of endourologic stone manipulation.
