Introduction to the PCNL Operative Sheath: Core Access for Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy

The PCNL Operative Sheath is a key device used during Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL) to provide stable access to the kidney. It allows for continuous passage of instruments and facilitates stone removal with minimal trauma. The sheath maintains an open working channel while enabling irrigation and visualization.

Design & Development: Evolution of the PCNL Operative Sheath in Endourology

The PCNL Operative Sheath was introduced alongside the advancement of percutaneous kidney stone surgeries in the late 20th century. Originally large and rigid, modern versions are now made with refined biocompatible materials to reduce tissue damage. These sheaths have evolved to support a range of nephroscope and accessories. Their design improvements have increased safety, precision, and procedural success in renal surgeries.
