Objective: Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL) is a minimally invasive procedure that is safely performed for kidney stone surgery all over the world. In our clinic, PNL surgery was first performed in March 1998. In parallel with our increasing experience, PNL has been performed in pediatric cases. In our study, PNL operations performed in pediatric patients under the age of 10 years and in those over the age of 10 years were retrospectively investigated.
