Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of percutaneous nephrolithotripsy guided by B-ultrasound in the treatment of complex renal calculi. A total of 82 patients with complex renal calculi were selected, who underwent percutaneous nephrolithotripsy guided by B-ultrasound. The average operation time was 101.52±8.35 minutes, the average intraoperative bleeding volume was 132.86±7.22 ml, the average hospital stay was 10.47 ±1.68 days, the primary calculi clearance rate was 85.37% (70 cases), and the secondary calculi clearance rate was 95.12% (78 cases). Postoperative complications occurred in 18 (21.95%) cases, including fever in 13 (15.85%), residual stone in 4 (4.88%), and delayed bleeding in 1 (1.22%) case. The findings show that percutaneous nephrolithotripsy guided by B-ultrasound is safe and effective in the treatment of complex renal calculi and is suitable for popularisation and application in primary hospitals.

Summary
Complex renal calculi refers to staghorn calculi, multiple renal calculi, cast calculi or multiple calculi with abnormal renal structure and kidney function, including isolated. PCNL guided by B-ultrasound was safe and effective in the treatment of complex renal calculi, and there were no side effects of radiation for both the patient and the surgeon.. B-ultrasound guided PCNL has been used in the treatment of complex renal calculi, with good results. This retrospective study was conducted at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guilin. The patients who underwent blood cell count and classification and routine urine examination; who were diagnosed with complex renal calculi (including staghorn calculi, multiple calculi, kidney stones within ectopic kidney) on plain X-ray of the kidney, ureter, bladder (KUB),.
