Abstract
The increasing prevalence of urolithiasis is a growing concern. Minimally invasive surgery seems to be nowadays the procedure of choice in treating urolithiasis. Quite frequently, an access to calculus can be complicated by concomitant pathology. The article provides a clinical case of urolithiasis preoperative diagnosis with concomitant hepatomegaly in a 67-year-old patient. An example of an interdisciplinary approach to surgical procedure planning is given in this research. Multispiral computed tomography was applied using multi-planar reconstructions, cutaneous radiopaque markers, and body positioning. The described observation allowed to reduce the surgical risks.
