ABSTRACT
@#A 47-year-old male complained of anuria for 2 days with elevated creatinine of 14 mg/dL on admission. Patient underwent emergent hemodialysis. Non-contrast CT showed a solitary ectopic pelvic kidney with a 2 cm. pelvolithiasis and a 1 cm upper pole calyceal stone with obstructive hydronephrosis. He therefore underwent ultrasound-guided nephrostomy tube placement. Once clinically stable, the patient underwent a multi-tract supine PCNL. Intraoperatively, the authors noted tense abdominal distention accompanied by hypotension during the procedure. A diagnosis of compartment syndrome secondary to hydroperitoneum was considered. An indwelling stent and a nephrostomy tube were placed. An abdominal pigtail drain was placed removing three liters of fluid. The patient remained intubated for 3 days. He underwent blood transfusion. He required two 2 sessions of hemodialysis postoperatively. The patient was discharged in stable condition on postoperative day 22. Hydroperitoneum is a potential complication of PCNL in ectopic pelvic kidneys. Its prompt recognition, followed by immediate aspiration of intraabdominal fluid and drain placement is life-saving.
