Procedures:
1. Antegrade Nephrostogram, bilateral.
2. Tube removal, bilateral.
Contrast: Iso-250: 60 ml. Fluoro Time: 1.9 min. 14 Gy per square
centimeters.
Procedure:
Informed consent was obtained. Multiple overhead radiographs were
obtained in conjunction with injection of contrast into bilateral
Percutaneous Nephrostomy tube. Upon completion of the nephrostogram
the Percutaneous Nephrostomy tubes were removed. Completion
radiographs were obtained.
Findings: The bilateral percutaneous nephrostomy tubes are in good
position. No evidence of leak. No evidence hydronephrosis. Prompt
filling of the renal pelvis, ureter, and bladder. There is no
evidence of extravasation. Post removal of the percutaneous
nephrostomy tubes there is near-complete drainage.
