Abstract Objective: This narrative review aims to describe measures to minimise the risk of complications during percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL), ureteroscopy, and retrograde intrarenal surgery. Methods: A literature search was conducted from the PubMed/PMC database for papers published within the last 10 years (January 2012 to December 2022). Search terms included “ureteroscopy”, “retrograde intrarenal surgery”, “PCNL”, “percutaneous nephrolithotomy”, “complications”, “sepsis”, “infection”, “bleed”, “haemorrhage”, and “hemorrhage”. Key papers were identified and included meta-analyses, systematic reviews, guidelines, and primary research. The references of these papers were searched to identify any further relevant papers not included above. Results: The evidence is assimilated with the opinions of the authors to provide recommendations. Best practice pathways for patient care in the pre-operative, intra-operative, and post-operative periods are described, including the identification and management of residual stones. Key complications (sepsis and stent issues) that are relevant for any endourological procedure are then be discussed. Operation-specific considerations are then explored. Key measures for PCNL include optimising access to minimise the chance of bleeding or visceral injury. The role of endoscopic combined intrarenal surgery in this regard is discussed. Key measures for ureteroscopy and retrograde intrarenal surgery include planning and technique to minimise the risk of ureteric injury. The role of anaesthetic assessment is discussed. The importance of specific comorbidities on each step of the pathway is highlighted as examples. Conclusion: This review demonstrates that the principles of meticulous planning, interdisciplinary teamworking, and good operative technique can minimise the risk of complications in endourology.
