Brief summary

A randomized trial with evaluation of the efficacy, related complications and convalescence of emergency percutaneous nephrolithotomy instead of percutaneous nephrostomy for decompression of the collecting system in cases of sepsis associated with uretero-pelvic junctional stone impaction.

Interventions
