Is [ Gossypiboma after abdominal surgery a challenging clinical problem and a serious medicolegal issue ]?
Gossypiboma is a former medical-legal problem, whose incidence is apparently increasing. Therefore needs to be revised to take preventive measures in the operating room.
Compared with the TLP approach, RLP for large renal pelvic stone resulted in a shorter operative time, a shorter resumption time for normal oral intake, and a shorter hospital stay. As the other clinical outcomes are similar, including the stone-free rate, we recommend the RLP route for LP.
