Even while infectious complications of PCNL aren't very prevalent, they nonetheless have the potential to cause considerable morbidity and even death. Infection-related consequences of percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) include postoperative urinary tract infections (UTIs), secondary haemorrhage of infectious origin, and surgical site infections (SSIs). These problems can lead to considerable morbidity. Additionally, bacteruria, sepsis, and septicemic shock are recognised and have been recorded in several investigations.
