Retrospective analysis addresses surgical outcomes in urolithiasis and congenital kidney anomalies, suggesting tailored approaches.

Percutaneous nephrolithotomy achieved a high stone clearance rate of 85.8%, providing a minimally invasive option for patients.
Patients with congenital kidney abnormalities exhibited a mean stone burden of 30.9 mm, complicating surgical intervention.
Anatomical anomalies such as ureteropelvic junction obstruction were prominent, occurring in 55.5% of cases with urolithiasis.
Comprehensive preoperative planning is essential to optimize outcomes, particularly in complex cases requiring open surgery.

Ceban et al. (2025) studied this question.
