New Technologies to Aid in Percutaneous Access
2019, Urologic Clinics of North AmericaCitation Excerpt :Specialized needles are being independently developed that allow easier targeting under low-dose and pulsed fluoroscopy using the bull’s-eye technique (Fig. 3) (Video 1).12 Lawson and colleagues13 described the original retrograde passage of a stylet from the kidney to the skin using fluoroscopy guidance (Fig. 4). More recently a technique has been described in which a small needle is advanced in a retrograde fashion through the working port of a flexible ureteroscope.14,15
Percutaneous nephrolithotomy with retrograde nephrostomy access: A forgotten technique revisited
2013, Journal of UrologyCitation Excerpt :Retrograde access is an alternative technique that can be safely and effectively performed with many advantages over the antegrade approach. Currently, the retrograde nephrostomy technique most widely used was first developed in 1983 by Lawson et al3 and subsequently modified by Hosking.4 There are several benefits of the retrograde technique, including a shorter learning curve, positional advantages,7 decreased radiation exposure,4 optimal calyceal selection and perhaps shorter operative time.
