Colon perforation following percutaneous nephrostomy and renal calculus removal. 1985

A J LeRoy, and H J Williams, and C E Bender, and J W Segura, and D E Patterson, and R C Benson

Two patients had colonic perforation as a result of percutaneous nephrostomy placement followed by track dilatation and renal calculus removal. We present the technical aspects of nephrostomy placement and stone removal, as well as the clinical diagnosis and management of these cases. Both patients recovered well with conservative therapy and required no surgical intervention. This report reviews the anatomic considerations for percutaneous nephrostomy in patients undergoing renal stone removal.
