Abstract
Urolithiasis is a common and frequent disease in urology. Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is preferred for the treatment of upper urinary tract stones and complicated renal stones >2 cm in diameter, but it has a higher rate of postoperative complications, especially infection, compared with other minimally invasive treatments for urinary stones. Complications associated with infection after percutaneous nephrolithotomy include transient fever, systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), and sepsis, which is considered one of the most common causes of perioperative death after percutaneous nephrolithotomy. In contrast, SIRS serves as a sentinel for sepsis, so early intervention of SIRS by biomarker identification can reduce the incidence of postoperative sepsis, which in turn reduces the length of stay and hospital costs for patients. In this paper, we summarize traditional inflammatory indicators, novel inflammatory indicators, composite inflammatory indicators and other biomarkers for early identification of systemic inflammatory response syndrome after percutaneous nephrolithotomy.
