Characteristics of Bacteria in Urine and Stones from Patients Treated with Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy and Association with Postoperative Infection. Infect Drug Resist 2024; 17:2873-2882. [PMID: 39005855 PMCID: PMC11246033 DOI: 10.2147/idr.s462257] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2024] [Accepted: 06/04/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Background The purpose of this study was to identify bacterial differences between urine cultures (UC) and stone cultures (SC) in patients with complex kidney stones and to determine any correlation with post-percutaneous nephrolithotomy Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS). Methods Perioperative data of 1055 patients with complex kidney stones treated with first-stage Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL) from September 2016 until September 2021 were included. Preoperative mid-stream urine samples and surgically obtained stone material were subjected to bacterial culture and antibiotic sensitivity tests. Preoperatively, antibiotic usage was determined by the UC or local bacterial resistance patterns. After PCNL treatment, antibiotic selection was guided by stone bacterial culture result and clinical symptoms. The effect of different preoperative antibiotic regimens based on urine cultures and postoperative antibiotic treatment based on stone cultures were assessed. Results Positive stone cultures (SC+) were significantly more common than positive urine cultures (UC+) (31.9% vs 20.9%, p < 0.05). Escherichia coli (E. coli) was the most common uropathogen in both urine (54.3%) and stones (43.9%). The difference was statistically significant (p < 0.05). Moreover, UC+SC-, UC-SC+, UC+SC+, and preoperative serum creatinine were independent risk factors of postoperative SIRS. The incidence of SIRS in the UC+SC+ patients with different bacteria in stones and urine (51.6%) was higher than that in other culture groups. The antibiotic resistance of E. coli inside the stone was increased when prolonged preoperative antibiotics were administered to UC+ patients. Conclusion The bacterial spectrum and positive outcome of culture in urine and stones were significantly different. The incidence of postoperative SIRS was highest in patients with UC+SC+ but with different bacteria strains. Prolonged pre-surgical antibiotic treatment apparently induced higher drug resistance for bacteria inside the stone.

[PMID: 38686361 PMCID: PMC11057514 DOI: 10.2147/jir.s453653] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2023] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 05/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Background There is a lack of validated predictive models for the occurrence of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) after percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopic lithotripsy (PTCSL) for the treatment of hepatolithiasis. This is the first study to estimate the incidence of SIRS after PTCSL. Methods A retrospective analysis of 284 PTCSL sessions for the treatment of hepatolithiasis at our institution between January 2019 and January 2023 was performed. The development of SIRS after PTCSL was the primary study endpoint. Independent risk factors for SIRS after PTCSL were identified using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. A nomogram prediction model was constructed using these independent risk factors, and the predictive value was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Results The incidence of SIRS after PTCSL was 20.77%. According to multivariate analysis, the number of PTCSL sessions (odds ratio [OR]=0.399, 95% confidence interval [CI]=0.202-0.786, p=0.008), stone location (OR=2.194, 95% CI=1.107-4.347, p=0.024), intraoperative use of norepinephrine (OR=0.301, 95% CI=0.131-0.689, p=0.004), intraoperative puncture (OR=3.476, 95% CI=1.749-6.906, P<0.001), preoperative gamma-glutamyltransferase (OR=1.002, 95% CI=1.001-1.004, p=0.009), and preoperative total lymphocyte count (OR=1.820, 95% CI=1.110-2.985, p=0.018) were found to be independent risk factors for the development of SIRS after PTCSL. These six independent risk factors were used to construct a nomogram prediction model, which showed satisfactory accuracy with an area under the ROC curve of 0.776 (95% CI: 0.702-0.850). Conclusion The number of PTCSL sessions, stone location, intraoperative use of norepinephrine, intraoperative puncture, preoperative gamma-glutamyltransferase, and preoperative total lymphocyte count may predict the occurrence of SIRS after PTCSL. This prediction model may help clinicians identify high-risk patients in advance.

Abstract
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of tubeless percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) in patients with Escherichia coli (E. coli) bacteriuria. We conducted a retrospective review of 84 patients with E. coli bacteriuria who underwent PCNL. Patients were divided into two groups according to whether a nephrostomy tube is placed at the end of the procedure. Preoperative clinical data, surgical outcomes, and postoperative complications were compared. Then, regression analysis of factors predicting success rate of PCNL in patients with E. coli bacteriuria was performed. After PCNL, residual fragments ≤ 4 mm were considered as success. At baseline, the two groups were similar with regard to age, gender, BMI, underlying disease, hydronephrosis, stone characteristics, and urinalysis. Postoperative fever occurred in 1 patient (3.8%) in the tubeless PCNL group, and in 5 patients (8.6%) in the conventional PCNL group (p > 0.05). There were no significant differences in terms of successful rate, decrease in hemoglobin, pain scores, blood transfusion, and hospitalization expenses. However, the tubeless PCNL group had significantly shorter operative time (60 vs. 70 min, p = 0.033), indwelling time of catheter (2 vs. 4 days, p < 0.001), and hospital stays (3 vs. 5 days, p < 0.001) than the conventional PCNL group. In the analysis of factors predicting success, the stone diameter, stone burden, and operative time were associated with success rate of PCNL. It is safe and effective to perform tubeless PCNL in patients with E. coli bacteriuria. Compared to conventional PCNL, tubeless PCNL accelerates patient recovery and shortens hospital stays.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The stone burden based management strategy reported in the guidelines published by different associations is well known for a long time. Staghorn calculi, representing the largest burden and most complex stones, is one of the most challenging cases to practicing urologists in clinical practice. The International Alliance of Urolithiasis (IAU) has released a series of guidelines on the management of urolithiasis. PURPOSE To develop a series of recommendations for the contemporary management management of staghorn calculi and to provide a clinical framework for urologists treating patients with these complex stones. METHODS A comprehensive literature search for articles published in English between 01/01/1976 and 31/12/2022 in the PubMed, OVID, Embase and Medline database is performed. A series of recommendations are developed and individually graded following the review of literature and panel discussion. RESULTS The definition, pathogenesis, pathophysiology, preoperative evaluation, intraoperative treatment strategies and procedural advice, early postoperative management, follow up and prevention of stone recurrence are summarized in the present document. CONCLUSION A series of recommendations regarding the management of staghorn calculi, along with related commentary and supporting documentation offered in the present guideline is intended to provide a clinical framework for the practicing urologists in the management of staghorn calculi.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the effects of different preoperative antibiotic prophylaxis (ABP) regimens on the incidence of sepsis after percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) in patients with negative urine culture. METHODS A single-center, randomized controlled trial (June 2022-December 2023) included 120 patients with negative preoperative urine cultures for upper urinary tract stones who underwent PCNL (chictr.org.cn; ChiCTR2200059047). The experimental group and the control group were respectively given different levofloxacin-based preoperative ABP regimes, including 3 days before surgery and no ABP before surgery. Both groups were given a dose of antibiotics before the operation. The primary outcome was differences in the incidence of postoperative sepsis. RESULTS A total of 120 subjects were included, including 60 patients in the experimental group and 60 patients in the control group. The baseline characteristics of the two groups were comparable and intraoperative characteristics also did not differ. The sepsis rate was not statistically different between the experimental and control groups (13.3% vs.13.3%, P = 1.0). A multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that body mass index (BMI) (OR = 1.3; 95% CI = 1.1-1.6; P = 0.003) and operating time (OR = 1.1; 95% CI = 1.0-1.1; P = 0.012) were independent risk factors of sepsis. CONCLUSION Our study showed that prophylactic antibiotic administration for 3 days before surgery did not reduce the incidence of postoperative sepsis in patients with negative urine cultures undergoing PCNL. For this subset of patients, we recommend that a single dose of antibiotics be given prior to the commencement of surgery seems adequate.

Abstract
Background: Updated in 2019, the American Urological Association's (AUA) Best Practice Statement on Urologic Procedures and Antimicrobial Prophylaxis outlines prophylaxis for percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). Recent studies have challenged these recommendations. We hypothesized that endourologists do not routinely follow the AUA's statement on antibiotic use during PCNL and assessed their prescribing patterns. Methods: A 24-question survey was distributed to members of the Endourological Society. The primary outcome was adherence to the AUA's recommendations. Two multiple logistic regression analyses were performed with demographics and antibiotic preference as predictors of following the AUA. Results: A total of 51.4% of endourologists follow the AUA Best Practice Statement for antimicrobial prophylaxis of uncomplicated PCNL. No demographic data were predictive of following the AUA. 90.9% and 83.6% reported they have "never" used the first-line recommendation options of metronidazole and aztreonam, respectively. Preferred antibiotics were cephalosporins (uncomplicated 60%, complicated 52.6%), fluoroquinolones (13.3%, 7.2%), aminoglycosides (12.7%, 17.8%), penicillins (7.9%, 11.2%), carbapenems (0.6%, 0.7%), trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (2.4%, 5.9%), fosfomycin (0.6%, 0.7%), nitrofurantoin (2.4%, 2.6%), aztreonam (0%, 0.7%), and clindamycin (0%, 0.7%). For uncomplicated PCNL, 63.1% prescribe ≤24 hours of perioperative antibiotics. For complicated PCNL, 16.2% prescribe ≤24 hours of perioperative antibiotics, while 20.4% begin antibiotics 7 or more days prior. Conclusions: Nearly half of respondents do not follow the AUA's recommendations for antibiotic choice for PCNL. Few endourologists prescribe 7 days of preoperative antibiotics for complicated PCNL despite supporting data. Metronidazole and aztreonam are rarely used as a first-line antibiotic choice for PCNL and their roles needs to be further evaluated as first-line prophylaxis recommendations. Updates on antibiotic recommendations for PCNL are needed based on current literature, antimicrobial stewardship, and contemporary practice patterns.

Abstract
AIM To compare the outcomes of two different protocols of antibiotic prophylaxis in patients with positive urine culture undergoing percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients were prospectively enrolled for the randomised study to either group A which included patients where an attempt to sterilise the urine was made with a 1 week course of sensitive antibiotics or group B that included patients who received a shorter duration of prophylaxis using sensitive antibiotics for 48 h prior to procedure which was continued for 48 h postoperatively. Enrolled patients had stones requiring percutaneous nephrolithotomy and had a positive preoperative urine culture. Primary outcome was difference in sepsis rates between the groups. RESULTS A total of 80 patients randomised into two groups of 40 each based on the antibiotic protocol used were analysed in the study. There was no difference in infectious complication rates between groups on univariate analysis. The rate of SIRS in Group A and Group B was found to be 20% (N = 8) and 22.5% (N = 9) respectively. The rate of septic shock in Group A and Group B was 7.5% and 5% respectively. On multivariate analysis, longer duration of antibiotics did not decrease the risk of sepsis compared to shorter antibiotic course (p = 0.79). CONCLUSION Attempts to sterilise urine before PCNL may not decrease the risk of sepsis in patients with positive urine culture undergoing PCNL and may only result in unnecessary prolonging of antibiotic usage thereby increasing the chances of antibiotic resistance.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Despite technological advancements in endourological surgery, there is room for improvement in preoperative patient optimization strategies. This review updates recent best clinical practices that can be implemented for optimal surgical outcomes. RECENT FINDINGS Outcome and complication predictions using novel scoring systems and techniques have shown to assist clinical decision-making and patient counseling. Innovative preoperative simulation and localization methods for percutaneous nephrolithotomy have been evaluated to minimize puncture-associated adverse events. Novel antibiotic prophylaxis strategies and further recognition of risk factors that attribute to postoperative infections have shown the potential to minimize perioperative morbidity. Accumulating data on the roles of preoperative stenting and selective oral alpha-blockers adds evidence to the current paradigm of preventive measures for ureteral injury. SUMMARY Ample tools and technologies exist that can be utilized preoperatively to improve surgical outcomes. The combination of these innovations, along with validation in larger-scale studies, presents the cornerstone of future urolithiasis management.

Puia D, Gheorghincă Ş, Radavoi GD, Jinga V, Pricop C. Can we identify the risk factors for SIRS/sepsis after percutaneous nephrolithotomy? A meta‑analysis and literature review. Exp Ther Med 2023; 25:110. [PMID: 36793328 PMCID: PMC9923362 DOI: 10.3892/etm.2023.11809] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2022] [Accepted: 01/10/2023] [Indexed: 01/26/2023] Open
Abstract
With the increase in percutaneous interventions such as percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) for renal lithiasis, infectious complications are becoming more frequent. The present study performed a systematic Medline and Embase databases search, using the following words: 'PCNL' [MeSH Terms] AND ['sepsis' (All Fields) OR 'PCNL' (All Fields)] AND ['septic shock' (All Fields)] AND ['urosepsis' (MeSH Terms) OR 'Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS)' (All Fields)]. Because of the technological advances in endourology, articles published between 2012 and 2022 were searched. Of the 1,403 results of the search, only 18 articles, representing 7,507 patients in which PCNL was performed, met the criteria to be included in the analysis. All authors applied antibiotic prophylaxis to all patients and, in some cases, the infection was treated preoperatively in those with positive urine cultures. According to the analysis of the present study, the operative time has been significantly longer in patients who developed SIRS/sepsis post-operatively (P=0.0001) with the highest heterogeneity (I2=91%) compared with other factors. Patients with a positive preoperative urine culture had a significantly higher risk of developing SIRS/sepsis following PCNL (P=0.00001), OD=2.92 (1.82, 4.68) and there was also a high degree of heterogeneity (I2=80%). Performing a multi-tract PCNL also increased the incidence of postoperative SIRS/sepsis (P=0.00001), OD=2.64 (1.78, 3.93) and the heterogeneity was a little smaller (I2=67%). Diabetes mellitus (P=0.004), OD=1.50 (1.14, 1.98), I2=27% and preoperative pyuria (P=0.002), OD=1.75 (1.23, 2.49), I2=20%, were other factors that significantly influenced postoperative evolution. A total of two factors analyzed, body mass index and patient's age, did not influence the outcome, P=0.45, I2=58% and P=0.98, I2=63%.

The clinical role of bacteremia and bacterial spread into the irrigation fluid during percutaneous nephrolithotomy: a prospective study. World J Urol 2023; 41:135-142. [PMID: 36469113 DOI: 10.1007/s00345-022-04217-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2022] [Accepted: 11/04/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Backflow of pathogens and endotoxins from the renal pelvis to the bloodstream is one supposed mechanism for infectious complications development after endourological stones surgery. The aim of this study is detecting to prove bacterial spread into irrigation fluid and bloodstream during percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) and to correlate these findings with clinical and microbiological parameters and infectious complications (IC). METHODS Bladder urine culture (BUC) was retrieved before PCNL; during the procedure, 2 blood samples (BC) and an irrigation fluid sample during fragmentation (SFUC) were collected for culture. Stone culture (SC) was also obtained. Patients were evaluated post-operatively for IC. RESULTS Sixty-one patients were prospectively included. IC occurred in 15 patients (24.6%). SFUC was positive in 7/61 (11.5%); BC in 10/61 (16.4%). Among patients with positive BC; BUC, SFUC and SC were positive in 9 (90%), 6 (60%), and 8 (80%) cases, respectively. Out of 10 patients with positive BC, 4 developed post-operative IC. Pre-operative renal impairment (p = 0.04), intraoperative-evaluated stone residual (p = 0.02), BUC (p = 0.004), and SC (p = 0.008) were associated with IC. No correlation was found between bacterial spread in the irrigation fluid and blood and IC. CONCLUSION We proved that bacteria can be detected into the irrigation fluid and blood during PCNL. This transient bacteremia appears to be unrelated to IC development.

The antibiotic strategies during percutaneous nephrolithotomy in China revealed the gap between the reality and the urological guidelines. BMC Urol 2022; 22:136. [PMID: 36042471 PMCID: PMC9429405 DOI: 10.1186/s12894-022-01092-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/11/2022] [Accepted: 08/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Correct perioperative antibiotic strategies are crucial to prevent postoperative infections during percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). We aimed to compare the realistic antibiotic strategies applied in China with current urological guidelines. Methods Between April and May 2020, urologists from China were invited to finish an online cross-sectional survey. The questionnaire was designed according to the current urological guidelines and literatures. Results 3393 completed responses were received. 61.1% (2073/3393) respondents had urological experience of more than 10 years. 72.4% urologists chose multiple-dose antibiotics for patients with both negative urine culture (UC-) and negative urine microscopy (UM-) preoperatively. Respondents in central China (OR = 1.518; 95% CI 1.102–2.092; P = 0.011), east China (OR = 1.528; 95% CI 1.179–1.979; P = 0.001) and northeast China (OR = 1.904; 95% CI 1.298–2.792; P = 0.001) were more likely to prescribe multiple-dose antibiotic for UC-UM- patients. Notably, the respondents who finished PCNL exceeded 100 cases per year were in favor of single-dose administration (OR = 0.674; 95% CI 0.519–0.875; P = 0.003). There are only 8.3% urologists chose single-dose antibiotic for UC-UM+ patients, whereas 65.5% administered antibiotics for 1–3 days. Meanwhile, for UC+ patients, 59.0% of the urologists applied antibiotics shorter than 1 week, and only 26.3% of the urologists carried out routine re-examination of UC. Moreover, postoperative antibiotics were frequently prescribed for 3–6 days (1815; 53.5%). Finally, although 88.2% urologists considered stone culture important for management of postoperative antibiotics as the guideline recommended, only 18.5% performed it routinely. Conclusions The antibiotic strategies are different between current practice in China and the urological guidelines. The dissimilarities suggested that further studies should be conducted to investigate the reasons of the differences and standardize the application of antibiotics.
