“…4 The overall results of laparoscopic pyelolithotomy for treatment of patients with pelvic kidney stones are satisfactory. 15 Therefore, laparoscopic pyelolithotomy is considered a good option for treatment of a single pelvic kidney stone, especially a renal pelvic stone. 16 PNL is a first-line treatment option for removal of large kidney stones.…”

“…Although the recurrence rate of stones after laparoscopic-assisted PNL is reportedly higher than that after laparoscopic pyelolithotomy, and although patients may need follow-up treatment after surgery, laparoscopic-assisted PNL is still an irreplaceable treatment option for patients with an ectopic pelvic kidney with caliceal calculi. 15 Robot-assisted techniques have gradually become a critical part of minimally invasive surgery. The use of such techniques can help to overcome the technical challenges associated with the laparoscopic technique.…”

Minimally invasive treatment of an ectopic kidney stone: a case report and literature review

An ectopic pelvic kidney is a rare congenital anomaly with a high incidence of complications such as reflux, hydronephrosis, nephrolithiasis, and even renal failure. We herein report a case of transperitoneal laparoscopic pyelolithotomy for treatment of a left pelvic kidney stone and discuss various surgical procedures based on the published literature. A 64-year-old woman presented to our hospital with generalized weakness and occasional nonspecific waist pain in October 2017. Computed tomography showed a 2.6-cm renal pelvis stone located in the left ectopic pelvic kidney with severe hydronephrosis. The patient underwent transperitoneal laparoscopic pyelolithotomy and was discharged 7 days after surgery. Various treatment procedures are available for ectopic kidney stones. Proper preoperative assessment and selection of the most suitable surgical procedure play critical roles in successful treatment.

“…Of these 11 patients, 10 achieved complete stonefree status, with the remaining patient's residual stone successfully treated with subsequent ESWL. Elbahnasy and coworkers 66 published results of 11 cases of laparoscopic pyelolithotomy for stones in pelvic ectopic kidneys and similarly reported favourable outcomes. Complete stone clearance was achieved in 10 of 11 patients and the patient with a residual fragment underwent successful secondstage ESWL.…”

Treatment options for kidney stones and ureteral stones have evolved considerably over the past several decades, to the point where almost any stone can now be considered for treatment with a noninvasive or a minimally invasive approach including shock wave lithotripsy, ureteroscopy or percutaneous nephrolithotomy. The safety and morbidity associated with these techniques are favourable relative to traditional open surgical approaches to stone removal. However, they also require unique skillsets, access to instrumentation and relatively high maintenance costs, potentially limiting their use on a global scale. Coincident with the emergence of endourology have been considerable improvements in laparoscopic surgical techniques to the point that nearly any open surgery can be performed in a minimally invasive laparoscopic fashion. Such approaches, including those with robotic assistance, have potential application for the treatment of upper urinary tract stones, particularly in complex senarios as well as in areas where access to endourological instruments might be limited.

Laparoscopic Pyelolithotomy in Selected Patients with Ectopic Pelvic Kidney: A Feasible Minimally Invasive Treatment Option

Abstract: Laparoscopic pyelolithotomy for large and multiple stones in ectopic pelvic kidneys is a feasible minimally invasive treatment option. The technique allows removal of all the stones without fragmentation, which may decrease the possibility for rapid stone recurrence.
