“…significantly reduced infection rates (0.6% vs 3.8%, p<0.001) and costs related to hospitalization 74 . Similarly, adding intramuscular amikacin 75 , gentamicin 76 , ceftriaxone 68 or amoxicillin-clavulanate 77 to fluoroquinolones have been shown to reduce infectious complications after TRUS-guided PB. Others have reported favorable results by switching from ciprofloxacin 500 mg plus aminoglycosides to levofloxacin 750 mg plus aminoglycosides 78 , by mixing 1 gram of ceftriaxone into the periprostatic lidocaine injection 79 or by combining intramuscular cephalosporin with povidone-iodine suppositories 57 .…”

“…TRUS guided prostate biopsy is a safe outpatient procedure with major complication rates such as sepsis, needle tract seeding and mortality between 0.6% and 3.3% [13]. There has been a 4-fold rise in infection rates during the past decade, mainly due to FQ -resistant E. coli [14]. The increase in core biopsy templates from 6 to 12 has not been implicated as a risk factor for morbidity [15].…”

“…There is no consensus in current literature for protocols regarding the antibiotic based prophylaxis and enemas before TRUS guided prostate biopsy [2]. But in daily practice almost all patients (79% to 81%) receive bowel preparation before the biopsy [14]. Therefore, we aimed to compare the impact of two different pre-biopsy bowel preparation methods on the rate of urosepsis.…”
