ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
The aim is to evaluate supine versus prone position in mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy in pediatric renal urolithiasis management.METHODS:
A randomized controlled trial was constructed to evaluate supine versus prone position in pediatric PCNL. Seventy pediatric patients with a stone burden ≥1.5 cm were randomized into two groups.RESULTS:
Sixty-three patients were available for evaluation in our study with no significant difference in the perioperative demographic data. The supine group showed a shorter operation time of 43.9 min compared to 73.5 min in the prone group. The stone-free rate was higher in the supine group, with a 93.9% SFR compared to 83.3% in the prone group. The supine group showed a shorter hospital stay of 2.0±1.0 days, compared to 3.20±1.56 days in the prone group. No significant difference was seen in the perioperative complication rate and fluoroscopy time between both groups.CONCLUSIONS:
Supine mini-percutaneous nephrolithotomy is safe and effective in managing pediatric renal stones, with a higher stone-free rate, less operative time, and less hospital stay compared to the prone position.
