Supine PCNL is an advanced variation of standard PCNL used for treating large and complex kidney stones with improved patient comfort and surgical access. Dr. Samarth Agarwal, experienced Urologist and Uro Surgeon in Siliguri, offers modern Supine PCNL treatment using minimally invasive techniques for safe stone removal and faster recovery.
What is Supine PCNL?
Supine PCNL is a specialized form of Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL) where the patient lies on the back during the procedure instead of the traditional prone position. This modified positioning allows better access to certain parts of the kidney while improving patient comfort and surgical efficiency.
The procedure is mainly used for removing large kidney stones, multiple stones, or complex stone formations that cannot pass naturally or be treated effectively through medications alone.
Dr. Samarth Agarwal provides advanced Supine PCNL surgery in Siliguri using modern technology and precision-based minimally invasive techniques.
When is Supine PCNL Recommended?
Supine PCNL may be recommended for:
- Large kidney stones
- Multiple kidney stones
- Complex stone formations
- Staghorn calculi
- Stones causing urinary blockage
- Failed previous stone treatments
The procedure is chosen based on the patient’s overall condition, stone size, and kidney anatomy.
How is Supine PCNL Performed?
During Supine PCNL, a small opening is created in the back to access the kidney directly while the patient remains in a supine position. Specialized instruments are used to identify, break, and remove kidney stones safely.
Advanced imaging guidance and modern stone fragmentation technology help improve treatment precision and stone clearance.
The supine position may also allow simultaneous access to the urinary tract, making the procedure more efficient in selected cases.
Benefits of Supine PCNL
Supine PCNL offers several advantages for both patients and surgeons.
Key benefits include:
- Minimally invasive treatment
- Improved patient comfort
- Better access to certain kidney areas
- Effective large stone removal
- Reduced surgical time in selected cases

The procedure combines modern surgical precision with improved treatment safety and efficiency.
Recovery After Supine PCNL

Patients may experience mild discomfort temporarily, which generally improves over time with medications and follow-up care.
