Percutaneous Nephrostomy Tract Dilation Procedure

The provider dilates (widens) an existing percutaneous nephrostomy tract, an artificial pathway between the kidney or renal pelvis and the skin. The provider may leave a tube in place after dilation to keep the tract open. In addition, the provider creates a new tract between the skin and the renal collecting system (renal pelvis).
