How are PCNL forceps used?
- After the kidney stones are fragmented using techniques like lithotripsy or laser, the PCNL forceps are used to retrieve the fragments from the kidney or renal pelvis.
- These forceps come in various types, including biprong, triprong, and alligator forceps, each designed to serve a specific purpose. The forceps are inserted through a small incision in the patient’s back, under x-ray guidance, and used to grasp and remove the stone fragments. They can also be used to remove debris, control bleeding, take tissue samples, manipulate instruments, and assist in stent placement.
