KArla,
Yes I have heard of it. It is almost comparable to putting a Suprapubic tube
in the bladder. They make a tiny incision and stick a tube in it and take the
kidney stone out that way. Instead of going up your ureters to the kidney. I
hop ethat makes sense toyou.I was a candidate for that once upon a time but
didn't do it. But I did care for a patient with that having been done.
