Laparoscopic anatrophic nephrolithotomy.
Management of staghorn calculi is still a challenge. To combine the surgical principles of treatment with the minimal invasive access we performed a laparoscopic anatrophic nephrolithotomy in a female patient successfully. Patient was discharged free of stone on fifth postoperative day. No complications occurred.
