Abstrak
A 55-year-old healthy lady underwent left side PCNL for a 1.5cm upper ureteric stone. The surgery was straightforward, and the stone was removed by pneumatic lithotripsy. We diagnosed bowel perforation while we were withdrawing the scope at the end of the procedure. Subsequently, she underwent exploratory laparotomy and jejunal perforation was identified, which was repaired primarily. To our knowledge, there were few similar case scenarios in the English literature, therefore we are sharing our experience on diagnosis and management of bowel perforation during PCNLs.
