Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare the positive aspects and complications of monoplanar and biplanar access techniques used in percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) based on the modified Clavien complication grading system.
Patients And Methods: The data from patients who underwent PCNL using either monoplanar access (group 1) or biplanar access (group 2) techniques were analyzed retrospectively. For the biplanar technique, puncture is adjusted based on different fluoroscopic projections, including vertical and 30 degree positions.

Percutaneous renal access is the most important step in percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL), and the adequacy of access directly affects the success and complication rates of this procedure.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of this monoplanar access technique on operative outcomes.
