    Nephrolithotomy surgery between 1962-1973 showed high pulmonary complication rates (37%). Anesthesia caused lower body temperature and blood pressure, linked to d-tubocurarine use.

    Area of Science:

    • Nephrology
    • Anesthesiology
    • Surgical Complications

    Background:

    • Nephrolithotomy is a surgical procedure for kidney stone removal.
    • Understanding historical surgical and anesthesia parameters is crucial for improving patient outcomes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze complications associated with nephrolithotomy performed between 1962 and 1973.
    • To identify anesthesia-related factors impacting patient safety during this procedure.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 113 nephrolithotomy patient records.
    • Tabulation of surgical and anesthesia parameters.

    Main Results:

    • A significant incidence of pulmonary complications (37%) was observed.

  • General hypothermia and initial hypotension were noted during anesthesia and operation.
  • These adverse events were potentially associated with the use of d-tubocurarine.

    • Conclusions:

    • Historical nephrolithotomy procedures were associated with notable pulmonary complications and anesthesia-related adverse events.
    • Further prospective research is needed to understand and mitigate these issues.
