Cryoprecipitate coagulum pyelolithotomy.
Coagulum pyelolithotomy is a useful adjunct in the extraction of renal calculi. Unfortunately, a superior coagulum (pooled fibrinogen) is no longer available in the United States. Experience has shown that the better coagula have a high fibrinogen content. A suitable alternate source of fibrinogen is present in cryoprecipitate. Experience with this new coagulum and its use are presented.
