Treatment of nephrolithiasis in infants is challenging. There are no separate guidelines for the management of renal stones in infants. There is a recent surge in doing PCNL in supine position. Literature is lacking regarding the feasibility and safety of supine PCNL in infants. We report a case of supine PCNL in 9-month-old female baby. We report our case to insist on the feasibility, safety and advantages of supine PCNL even in less than 1 year age group.

Introduction: Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL) has been performed in various positions, including prone position and several modifications of supine position. The Barts flank-free modified supine (FFMS) position is a newly enhanced version of the supine positions. This study aims to compare the outcomes of Barts FFMS and prone position in PCNL.

Introduction: Since percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) was introduced in 1976, it has been the standard procedure for large renal stones. Over time, the PCNL technique changed and developed into various techniques. We introduce single-site multipuncture supine (SMS) PCNL to give a cosmetic advantage due to less tissue injury in complex renal stones.

Introduction: Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is widely performed as the preferred treatment for kidney stones larger than 20 mm in pediatric patients, with current research focusing on comparing outcomes between prone and supine positions to determine optimal procedural positioning. Therefore, the aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of prone versus supine positioning in pediatric PCNL, providing clarity on this critical aspect of the procedure to guide clinical decision-making.
Methods: We conducted a systematic review in PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Cochrane, Web of Science and Google Scholar.
