Abstract
Renal stone disease is a global problem with a 12 global prevalence. For the management of renal stones percutaneous nephrolithomy PCNL is the urological intervention of choice. There have been several instances of post-PCNL urinary tract infection (UTI) despite a sterile pre-operative urine culture. To look into the possible factors that may be associated with such an outcome, we observed 142 patients undergoing PCNL with a pre requisite of sterile pre-operative urine culture, no indwelling double J stents, and no fever episodes within the last seven days of admission for PCNL.
