Journal Title: Çukurova Anestezi ve Cerrahi Bilimler Dergisi - Year 2019, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Kidney stone disease is very common in the world. Although percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is the gold standard surgical treatment for renal stones larger than 2 cm, complication rates of 20% to 83% have been reported. Complications of PCNL procedure include bleeding, sepsis, injury to the collecting system, injury to adjacent organs such as colon, small intestine, thoracic, liver, gallbladder and spleen, and death. These complications are minimized by choosing an appropriate patient and good preoperative evaluations. As experience increases, the complication rate decreases. The most important is the early identification of the complication. Major complications can be solved with conservative and minimally invasive methods. In this review, we discussed the complications and their management of PCNL.
