Abstract

A descriptive study of 103 patients who received lumbo-laparoscopic surgery in the Urology Service of "Dr. Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso" Teaching General Hospital in Santiago de Cuba was carried out during the period of January, 2011 to December, 2014, aimed at describing early intraoperative and postsurgical complications according to some selected variables.  Among the main discoveries of the series it was obtained that 73 surgeries were carried out through transperitoneal access and 30 through retroperitoneal access, most of the patients corresponded to the male sex and in all surgeries 15 complications were notified, with higher frequency of the reactional hydrocele and prolonged drainage, which were classified in degree according to the Clavien-Dindo system.  It is concluded that the emergence of complications was closely related to the complexity of the procedures carried out and the surgical retroperitoneal access; however, the urologic lumbo-laparoscopic surgery constitutes a reliable technique for the treatment of these patients.
