Summary
Percutaneous nephrolitotomy (PCNL)is an endourological procedure for the management of patients with renal calculi. Postoperative pain around the surgical area and the nephrostomy tube can being a problem. We hypothesized that intercostal nerve block at 11th and 12th rib level would alleviate postoperative pain and reduce analgesic consumption.
