经皮肾手术已用于治疗与尿结石无关的其它各种情况。例如,Wickham等报告了经皮途径治疗肾盂输尿管交界处梗阻:经皮肾盂松解术。他们使用一种Sachs氏尿道切开刀,在肾盂输尿管交界处切开后正中壁,直至能看到输尿管周围脂肪。切开是从狭窄的上方1厘米起至狭窄的下方1厘米止,并安置输尿管支架4周。用此方法治疗7例病人,5例是成功的,其中 Percutaneous nephrostomy has been used to treat a variety of other conditions unrelated to urolithiasis. For example, Wickham et al. Report transdermal approaches for obstruction at the junction of the ureteropelvic junction: percutaneous pyeloplasty. They used a Sachs’ urethral incision that was cut at the junction of the ureteropelvic and the mid-wall until it could see the fat around the ureter. The incision was from 1 cm above the narrow to 1 cm below the narrow, and the ureteral stent was placed for 4 weeks. Seven patients were treated with this method and five were successful
