If residual stones in the renal calyx are likely, a flexible ureteroscope is inserted from the trocar under the twelfth rib and through the pelvis incision to search carefully for residual stones ...

Extrarenal pelvic stone may cause obstruction to drainage of urine from the calyx into renal pelvis resulting in accumulation of calyx.

Kidney stones (calculi) are mineral concretions in the renal calyces and pelvis (Fig. 1) that are found free or attached to the renal papillae. By contrast, diffuse renal parenchymal calcification ...

Ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) is characterized by impaired flow of urine from the renal pelvis to the ureter and if left untreated can significantly impair renal function. Khan and ...

Computed tomography performed before collecting the organ showed a staghorn stone in the renal pelvis and lower calyces in the right donor kidney. The stones were removed ex-vivo using a rigid ...

Background: Studies on renal pelvis and ureter cancer are very small and are limited to tertiary care based cancer registry but community cancer registry studies are lacking. Hence we attempted to ...

The Verve RPD system ablates afferent and efferent nerves in the renal pelvis and is likely more effective due to the increased density of innervation in the renal pelvis, where easier access can ...

The Verve trial demonstrated the efficacy and safety of this minimally invasive, non-vascular renal pelvic denervation.
