Popis: Asymtomatic or small renal stones are commonly detected during preoperative evaluations of prospective renal donors owing to the relative high prevalence of renal stones in the Indian population. These stones may lead to serious complications in transplanted kidneys and need to be cleared before transplant. Bench retrograde intrarenal surgery performed during donor nephrectomy can be performed to efficiently clear these stones. This technique is safe, easily reproducible, reduces donor morbidity, and costs without adversely effecting transplant outcomes.
