NCT05232188

Brief Summary

Patients will be randomly divided into two groups in order to evaluate the effect of the size of the access sheath (Amplatz) used in the Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL) operation on kidney functions. After dilatation, 22French (Fr) Amplatz sheath will be placed in the first group, while 28Fr Amplatz sheath will be placed in the second group. The functional difference will be evaluated with preoperative and postoperative 3rd-month kidney scintigraphies (diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA) and technetium-99m dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA). In addition, Kidney Injury Molecule-1 (KIM-1) levels will be measured in the urine in order to be a predictor of functional loss in the early period.
