Sepsis SEPSIS after PCNL and URS LIJ Preoperative predictors of sepsis after PCNL and URS bladder outlet obstruction (OR 6.4) positive pre-operative urine culture (OR 6.7) indwelling nephrostomy tube (OR 6.4). Treatment of a positive preoperative urine culture did not reduce the risk of sepsis, and cannot be considered a reliable preventative measure.

Upper pole access Access below the 12 rib rarely results in plural injury (<5%) CT study of pts: 1 Supra-11 th rib Right 86%; Left 79% Surpa-12 th rib Right 29%; Left 14% Clinical series for supracostal approaches % Courtesy Mitchell Humphreys 2,3 1. Hopper et al. AJR Am J Roentgenol; Yadav et al. Int J Urol; Lojanapiwat et al. J Endourol Injury to Pleural cavity Pneumothorax, hemothorax, urothorax, hydrothorax. Distal ureteral obstruction Tubeless for high puncture Routine use of fluoro of chest Chest x-ray more sensitive Most conservatively managed Aspirate at end of case Rarely requires chest tube 6

Infected urine progress to empyema Delay in drainage may lead to need for a Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) PCNL Case Presentation 32 year old female POD#1 from left PCNL for staghorn calculus Left upper pole percutaneous access supra 12 Feels well other than some pleuritic chest pain with inspiration, no SOB Hct 37 from preop 41 Routine non-contrast CT scan ordered to evaluate for residual stone 7

8 What do you do now? No perinephric hematoma. No residual stone. a. Remove nephrostomy tube and send patient home b. Send patient to Interventional radiology for embolization c. Consult General Surgery for urgent splenectomy d. Bed rest, serial Hct, leave nephrostomy tube in place for 2 weeks Cause Misplaced nephrostomy tube Transhepatic Upper pole or supra-11 th rib punctures Hepatomegaly Transplenic Upper pole or supra-11 th rib punctures Splenomegaly Transcolonic Retrorenal colon (0.6% pts) Congenital renal anomalies: horseshoe, ectopia, fusion anomalies Prior gastrointestinal surgery Chronic constipation, neurogenic bowel Musculoskeletal anomalies Anterior calyceal access PREVENTION TUBELESS!!
