Abstract
The anatrophic nephrolithotomy procedure described by Smith and Boyce is a safe, effective method to remove dendritic renal calculi. Two major departures from their surgical technique have simplified the procedure. Experience with 56 consecutive cases treated with the simplified technique is reported.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
