Abstract

Purpose: Many different techniques, including multimodal analgesia, have been used for the management of postoperative pain after Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). Ketorolac, intravenous (IV) paracetamol, rofecoxib, and IV ibuprofen have been used as a part of a multimodal analgesic approach in different surgical procedures. However, the efficacy of IV ibuprofen has not been well elucidated in adult patients undergoing elective PCNL. The aim of the study was to examine the efficacy of IV ibuprofen compared to IV paracetamol after elective PCNL.
