Percutaneous nephrolithotomy in transplanted kidney.

Renal transplant patients with urologic complications can be managed safely with percutaneous techniques. The development of renal calculi in transplanted kidneys is uncommon, but in these cases complications such as infection and urinary tract obstruction with impairment of graft function can occur. We report 2 cases managed successfully with percutaneous nephrolithotomy.

We report on a patient with this uncommon condition that presented without hematuria and in association with a rare abdominal and thoracic malformation known as situs inversus. A review of the literature focussing on recently reported cases in the Spanish literature revealed it to be a disease of unknown etiology whose pathogenesis is not well-established, clinical features unspecific, without treatment for the underlying cause, and is a radiologic diagnostic difficulty requiring a differential diagnosis from other filling defects in the urothelium.
