The clinical value and efciency of hands-on training courses in percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) remains undocumented. During the last 9 years, a two-day international intensive hands-on training course in uoroscopic guided prone PCNL is taking place in our department on a monthly basis. Course includes wet lab training in the porcine model and live surgery training. In this work we report the outcomes of a survey send to course participants questioning the impact of the course to their clinical practice.
