ABSTRACT Introduction: renal lithiasis is one of the first causes of urological consultations. Percutaneous nephrolithotomy as a definitive surgical treatment has been gaining ground in this entity. Objective: to characterize percutaneous nephrolithotomy in Pinar del Río from 2015 to 2018. Methods: an observational, descriptive, cross-sectional research was carried out, constituted by a universe of 136 patients (sample of 85), all registered in the Statistics Department of the General Teaching University Hospital Abel Santamaría Cuadrado 2015-2018 in Pinar del Rio Province. The information was collected through the clinical history (general data (age, gender), imaging (affected kidney and form of lithiasis), therapeutic (surgical position, number of interventions for each patient, trans and post-operative complications), as post-operative stay, a database was made where the qualitative variables were expressed in absolute frequencies and the relative ones in percentages. Results: male sex predominated with 56 patients (65,9 %) between the ages of 20-49 years, the most used surgical position was supine decubitus with 83 cases (97,6 %), trans and postoperative complications corresponded to bleeding in 3 (3,5 %) and complicated urosepsis in nine patients (10,5 %) with a hospital stay of three to five days. Conclusions: percutaneous nephrolithotomy constitutes a step forward in the treatment of renal lithiasis, so its study establishes a link for its understanding and application at present for the resolution of this pathology in patients, with the minimum of complications.
