PCNL in a complete staghorn calculus

A 40 year old lady presented to us with flank pain on left side on and off for a period of 6 months.On investigations she was found to have calculus -a complete staghorn variety in the left renal pelvis.
She was taken up for PCNL.A total of 4 punctures in different calyces had to be made.The surgery was carried out in 3 sessions.At the end we could give a complete endoscopic and fluoroscopic clearance.
