After a long period of neglect (Goodwin et al. 1955), percutaneous nephropyelostomy (PNS) has gained general acceptance and replaced operative nephrostomy. In addition, the percutaneous approach has led to a number of new diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. The objective of this review is not to give a complete and detailed survey of PNS but rather to report on our technique and results with fine needle nephrostomy and various endo-urological manipulations.
