Resumen

Introducción Se encuentran múltiples tratamientos para la urolitiasis, los cuales dependen en gran medida del tamaño y la ubicación de la litiasis. Dentro de las opciones terapéuticas se encuentran la expulsión activa, utilización de ondas de choque, las ureterolitotomias, y procedimientos endoscópicos, todas con diferentes tasas de efectividad y riesgo de complicación infecciosa. El objetivo del estudio fue evaluar los factores asociados a la complicación infecciosa posterior al procedimiento urológico en pacientes con urolitiasis.

Métodos Estudio de casos y controles anidado a una cohorte de pacientes programados para procedimientos urológicos como tratamiento para la urolitiasis durante el periodo 2015 - 2019. Se consideraron casos, aquellos con complicación infecciosa posoperatoria dentro de los 30 días posteriores al procedimiento urológico. Los controles se seleccionaron de la cohorte inicial y fueron los pacientes que no presentaron complicación infecciosa.

Resultados En el periodo de estudio, fueron atendidos 350 pacientes con litiasis renal, con un total de 1258 cálculos. El número promedio de cálculos por paciente fue de 3,59; la prevalencia de litiasis bilateral fue del 57%, siendo similar la cantidad de cálculos en el lado izquierdo (promedio = 1,4) y en el derecho (promedio = 1,44).

La tasa de complicación infecciosa posquirúrgica fue del 4% (n= 14) y se asoció con la presencia de al menos un cálculo mayor de 20 mm (OR 4,49 IC95% 1,39–14,52).

Conclusión La tasa de complicación infecciosa posoperatoria en pacientes con urolitiasis y programados para procedimientos urológicos es baja. Una longitud del cálculo mayor de 20 mm es un factor asociado a la infección posoperatoria.

Abstract

Introduction There are multiple treatments for urolithiasis, which largely depend on the size and location of the lithiasis. Among the therapeutic options are active expulsion, use of shock waves, urolithotomies, and endoscopic procedures, all with different rates of effectiveness and risk of infectious complications. The objective of the study was to evaluate the factors associated with the infectious complication after the urological procedure in patients with urolithiasis.

Methods Case-control study nested in a cohort of patients scheduled for urological procedures as treatment for urolithiasis during the period 2015-2019. Cases were considered, those with postoperative infectious complication within 30 days after the urological procedure. The controls were selected from the initial cohort and were the patients who did not present an infectious complication.

Results During the study period, 350 patients with kidney stones were treated, with a total of 1258 stones. The average number of stones per patient was 3.59; the prevalence of bilateral lithiasis was 57%, the number of stones being similar on the left side (average = 1.4) and on the right (average = 1.44). The postoperative infectious complication rate was 4% (n = 14) and was associated with the presence of at least one stone larger than 20 mm (OR 4.49 95% CI 1.39 - 14.52).

Conclusion The postoperative infectious complication rate in patients with urolithiasis and scheduled for urological procedures is low. A stone length greater than 20 mm is a factor associated with postoperative infection.
