Surgical site infections (SSIs) pose a significant complication following laparoscopic urological surgeries, impacting patient recovery and healthcare resources. Understanding the pathogen distribution and identifying associated risk factors for SSIs is critical for improving surgical outcomes. A retrospective analysis was performed on 90 patients, from March 2020 to June 2023, to investigate the risk factors and pathogen profiles in SSIs post‐laparoscopic urological procedures. Patients with documented infections were compared to a control group without SSIs. Data on demographics, comorbidities and perioperative variables were collected. Pathogens were identified using the VITEK‐2 Compact system. Statistical analyses included univariate and multivariate logistic regression models. Upon evaluation, demographic and clinical characteristics showed no significant variance in patients with SSIs compared to those without such infections. The predominant pathogen identified was Escherichia coli. Administration of prophylactic antibiotics correlated with a reduced incidence of SSIs, whereas an array of risk factors including surgery duration of 2 h or more, anaemia, white blood cell counts exceeding 10 × 109/L, a history of urinary tract infections, the presence of diabetes mellitus and incidences of urinary leakage post‐surgery were identified as contributors to a heightened risk of SSIs. Prophylactic antibiotics serve as a protective factor against SSIs, whereas several modifiable risk factors, including operation duration, anaemia, elevated leukocytes, history of urinary infections, diabetes and urinary leakage, contribute to the increased risk.
