title: [Peroperative complications during percutaneous nephrolithotomy].
abstract: Two hundred seventy patients undergoing resection of renal or lumbar ureteral stones with percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL) were reviewed. The observed complications were of three types: circulatory, respiratory and metabolic (reabsorption syndrome). The rate of patients with any complication was 38.9% (104 patients). The most common type were circulatory complications, found in 75 patients (27.7%). Respiratory complications developed in 22 patients (8.1%), and the remaining 2 patients (0.74%) had reabsorption syndrome. Six cases of severe complications developed (2.22%), i.e.: one electromechanical dissociation, one ventricular tachycardia, one reabsorption syndrome and two severe difficulties for ventilation. In addition, one patient died (0.37%).
