Clinical Purpose of PCNL (Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy)
The PCNL Set with Pneumatic Lithotripter is a comprehensive surgical solution designed for the removal of large, complex, and staghorn kidney stones through a minimally invasive percutaneous approach. It integrates advanced imaging systems, nephroscopy instruments, dilation systems, and pneumatic lithotripsy technology to ensure efficient stone fragmentation, extraction, and renal access. This set enhances surgical precision, reduces operative time, and improves patient outcomes in complex urolithiasis cases.
Evolution of PCNL Technology with Pneumatic Lithotripsy Systems
PCNL has evolved from open kidney stone surgery to a highly advanced minimally invasive procedure. Earlier techniques required large incisions and longer recovery times.
With the introduction of nephroscopes, dilation systems (Amplatz, balloon dilators), and pneumatic lithotripters, PCNL has become the gold standard for large renal stones. Modern advancements, including mini-PCNL systems and improved imaging with C-arm guidance, have significantly reduced complications, improved accuracy, and enhanced patient recovery.

Instructions for Use of PCNL System
- Set up the Advin HD Camera System, connect it to the medical monitor, and attach the LED light source with fiber optic cable for clear visualization.
- Position the Advin C-ARM for real-time imaging guidance during renal access.
- Insert a guide wire into the kidney through initial puncture to establish a safe access path.
- Perform tract dilation using Alkine cannula, telescopic dilators, fascial dilators, or balloon dilator with inflation device.
- Place the Amplatz sheath (with or without dilator) to maintain a stable working channel.
- Introduce the PCNL nephroscope through the sheath to visualize the kidney stones.
- Use the Advin Litho+ pneumatic lithotripter to fragment the stones under direct vision.
- Remove stone fragments using PCNL forceps, angular basket, or suction system.
- Insert a PCN catheter or Malecot nephrostomy catheter for drainage after the procedure.
- Place a Double J stent if required to support ureteral drainage and healing.
- Maintain sterility using urology, major surgery, and split drapes throughout the procedure.
- After completion, clean and sterilize all reusable instruments properly.
