Non-contrast computed tomography-based factors in predicting ESWL success: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Purpose: We assessed the efficacy of some predictive factors that can be measured with non-contrast computed tomography and may affect ESWL success with a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Materials And Methods: All data sources were broadly investigated up to April 2022. Data were extracted from the relevant studies and analyzed with RevMan software.

Renal pelvis stone in reverse kidney: A case report and literature review.

In neonates, kidney and urinary tract anomalies, like rotation anomalies, may be observed at rates of 3-11%. During rise to the lumbar region, the kidney completes rotation from left to right around the long axis from top to bottom and the renal hilum turns toward the medial direction. However, generally due to vascular causes, this rotation around the long axis of the kidney (renal axis, pole to pole) may be incomplete or may not occur.

Colon perforation after PCNL in reverse rotation anomalous kidney: A very rare case report and literature review.

PCNL is the gold standard method for large kidney stones currently. It offers high success and low complication rates. In recent times, miniaturized PCNL methods are used to further reduce the complication rates.
