Other Comments:
It is a good article, outlining the need and indications of perctuanous nephrostomy. it would have increased the value of article- if there was a brief discussion of technique of nephrostomy, of common complications- and how to avoid them.

effective post procedure care, including flushing of catheters, watch of urinary output and communication between clinical and radiology teams are a key to improve outcomes.
