Abstract

Percutaneous removal of renal and ureteral calculi has become an established and successful procedure in adults. We have performed percutaneous extraction of renal stone, in 4-year-old girl. She was discharged without specific complication and IVP was checked postoperatively at 3 months later. We report a case of renal stone treated by percutaneous nephrolithotomy.
