The percutaneous renal approach has a low complication rate (22.2%) and mortality (0.5%), making it a safe procedure. Kidney stone conditions were linked to higher bleeding risks and approach failures.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Nephrology

Context:

  • Percutaneous renal procedures are increasingly utilized for various urological conditions.
  • Understanding complication rates is crucial for patient safety and procedural refinement.

Purpose:

  • To analyze the complications associated with the percutaneous renal approach.
  • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of percutaneous renal surgery.

Summary:

  • A total of 175 percutaneous renal procedures were performed between 1990 and 1996, primarily for lithiasis (69.2%).
  • The overall complication rate was 22.2%, with a mortality of 0.5%.
  • Complications included bleeding, infections, fistulas, and pneumothorax, with lithiasis being a risk factor for hemorrhagic complications and approach failure.

Impact:

  • The percutaneous renal approach demonstrates a favorable morbidity-mortality ratio.
  • Findings guide risk assessment and management strategies for percutaneous renal interventions.
