Calyceal diverticula are a unique urologic pathology that occasionally cause bothersome symptoms for patients. Diagnosis is challenging and is accomplished only with appropriate imaging and experienced clinicians. A variety of treatment options exist for calyceal diverticula. Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is a valuable treatment for calyceal diverticula as it can be used in majority of patients and has excellent success rates.
