A radiological investigation of the hepatorenal space: the importance of the ventral decubitus for safer percutaneous right renal access

Abstract: We investigated anatomical and radiological morphometric parameters, aiming to minimize the risk of hepatic and colonic injuries during right percutaneous kidney access under either ventral or dorsal decubitus of patients. Prone and supine abdominal computerized tomographic examinations from 31 normal adult volunteers (men = 12; women = 19; without history of abdominal pathology) were analyzed morphometrically in order to study the dynamic anatomical relations between the liver and the right kidney. The age of… Show more
