Nephrolithiasis accelerates the renal failure in the patients with ADPKD. In order to evaluate the role of percutaneous\nnephrolithotomy in management of calculus in these patients, 11 patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease\nand renal stones were included in the study. Two patients had bilateral renal stones. All patients were treated by percutaneous\nnephrolithotomy under ultrasound guidance. 13 percutaneous nephrolithotomy procedures were performed in 1 stage by the\nurology team under ultrasound guidance. 5 people received second operation with flexible nephroscopy in lateral position. The\nsuccess rate and morbidity and mortality of the technique and hospital stay were recorded. Results. The puncture procedure was\nfully successful in all cases. The renal function improved in these patients. 5 patients had moderate fever after the surgery. 5 patients\nreceived flexible nephroscopy to take out the residual calculi. 2 persons had ESWL therapy after the surgery. Conclusion. PCNL is\nan ideal, safe, and effective method to remove the stones from those patients with no definite increase in the risk of complication.\nThe outcome and stone-free rate are satisfactory comparable to the PCNL in the patients without ADPKD.
