Summary

This meta-analysis found that percutaneous nephrolithotomy combined with negative pressure suction significantly reduces operation time, postoperative complications, fever, and intraoperative blood loss compared to the procedure without negative pressure, without increasing the risk of septic shock. The technique improves both safety and efficiency of kidney stone removal surgery.
