ABSTRACT = {We report successful percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) 
in an 8-week-old, 4.12 kg infant with a combined stone 
burden of > 2 cm in a solitary kidney. The patient was born 
with thoracolumbar myelomeningocele and had developed 
recurrent urinary tract infections. Her size precluded retrograde intrarenal surgery and shockwave lithotripsy 
would be unlikely to clear the stone burden. Stone analysis 
revealed hydroxyapatite and carbonate apatite stones, 
and metabolic work up revealed hypercalciuria for which 
chlorothiazide was started. To our knowledge, this is the 
youngest patient to undergo PCNL reported in the literature.},
