Supine PCNL (Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy) is a modern and highly effective surgical procedure used for the removal of large or complex kidney stones. In this technique, the patient lies in a supine position (on the back) during surgery, offering improved comfort, better airway control, and enhanced surgical access.

Under the expert care of Dr. Sunirmal Choudhury, Supine PCNL is performed using advanced minimally invasive methods for safe and successful stone removal.

It is especially recommended for:

• Large kidney stones
• Multiple kidney stones
• Staghorn calculi
• Hard stones not treatable by laser or shockwave
• Recurrent kidney stones
• Obstructed kidney stones causing pain or infection

Compared to conventional methods, Supine PCNL offers greater patient safety and convenience, especially for elderly patients, obese patients, and those with cardiac or respiratory concerns.

With modern imaging and endoscopic techniques, the procedure ensures precise stone removal with minimal discomfort.
