Brief Summary

Historically, percutaneous treatment of stone-bearing caliceal diverticula has resulted in the best success rates when examining factors such as symptom relief and stone-free rates (Jones, et al, 1991). Many groups have reported modifications in their percutaneous approach which have reportedly improved patient outcomes, but these series have very limited populations. Another issue concerning stone-bearing caliceal diverticula centers on the etiology of stones formation within these areas. This topic remains a subject of debate, with conflicting data in the literature.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • We hope to use the urine metabolic data to clarify whether this subset of stone forming patients have significant underlying metabolic risk factors that contribute to stone formation within their diverticula.

    Two months post-op

Procedure: Percutaneous Caliceal Diverticuli

Interventions

Standard of care to remove a stone from a caliceal diverticulum is to do a percutaneous procedure for stone removal and then fulgerate the diverticulum to prevent stone recurrence. We plan to aspirate urine from this diverticulum and compare it to urine collected from the renal pelvis of the same kidney.
