Intra-Vesical Colistin for Pseudomonas aeruginosa Urinary Tract Infections

Abstract: The numbers of multiple drug-resistant Gram-negative bacterial infections are rising worldwide. The threat is increased by the lack of new antibiotics, so clinicians are turning to older drugs previously abandoned due to their recognized toxicity, such as colistin. However, the need to avoid kidney toxicity from colistin has led to its topical use. We present the case of a patient with type I cardiorenal syndrome with cystitis due to multiple drug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa who was successfully treated w… Show more

“…We found neither Multidrug-Resistant (MDR) organisms such as Klebsiella pneumoniae Carbapenamase-resistant ( KPC ) bacteria among the bacterial isolates nor Acinetobacter or Pseudomonas aeruginosa MDR ; thus, there was no need to consider Colistin intravesical instillation, as reported by some authors [ 11 , 12 ].…”

“…In this investigation, the aftereffects of TUNEL staining were correlated with those of tryptase staining, demonstrating that constant irritation of the suburothelium was essentially connected with more significant levels of urothelial apoptosis in the bladders of patients with ESRD/CKD. These associations show that aggravation caused expanded apoptosis and influenced urothelial tangible capacity in ESRD/CKD patients [11].…”
