Summary: | Upper urinary tract stones are a common condition in urology clinics. Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is an effective procedure frequently used for the treatment of stones larger than 2 cm. MAP scoring is used to predict oncological outcomes and intraoperative complications after partial nephrectomy by using the thickness and adhesion of perinephric adipose tissue. We examined the relationship between MAP score and clinical and demographic findings of the patients, especially postoperative Hgb drop and postoperative complications.
Patients were divided into 2 groups: Those with MAP score |
