Öz What’s known on the subject? and What does the study add? Percutaneous nephrolithotomy have infectious complications in the form of systemic inflammatory response (SIRS) and urosepsis. Antibiotic prophylaxis in order to prevent this complication has been widely investigated. Our prospective randomized study highlights two commonly used antibiotics in Turkiye and their effects on infectious complications. Our results indicate similar SIRS/urosepsis rates between groups and hence we advise to use cefazolin that has a narrower anti-bacterial spectrum.
