Advanced Surgical Option for Large Kidney Stones – PCNL

What is PCNL?

PCNL is a minimally invasive surgery that involves making a small incision in the back to access the kidney directly. A nephroscope is inserted through this incision, and the stones are broken using laser or ultrasonic energy and removed from the body. This method is suitable for larger stones (greater than 2 cm) or complex stones like staghorn calculi. When dealing with large, complex, or stubborn kidney stones, PCNL (Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy) is considered one of the most effective surgical procedures. Performed by a best urologist with 12+ years of experience, PCNL offers high success rates for stone removal that is not possible with other non-invasive methods. This procedure is ideal for patients requiring complete stone clearance with minimal recurrence risk.
