TL;DRAbstract
The estimated blood loss, duration of hospital stay, operative time, number of procedures (to achieve stone-free status), and complications did not statistically differ between the three groups. Moreover very few complications occurred in the different surgical approaches. Therefore, PCNL via all the three approaches were deemed safe and effective.
