Conservative management of accidental gall bladder puncture during percutaneous nephrolithotomy
Journal Title: Central European Journal of Urology - Year 2014, Vol 67, Issue 2
Abstract
Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) has been an excellent option for the management of kidney stones. There have been many complications in regards to solid organ injury during PCNL. Here we discuss an interesting case of 45-year-old woman, who underwent PCNL for right renal staghorn calculus, and had an accidental puncture of the gall bladder. Post operatively, the patient was conservatively managed and recovered well. A small number of cases has been reported until now in literature.
