Prosbiotate: A Multicenter, Prospective Analysis of Infectious Complications after Prostate Biopsy

Abstract: In this study the incidence of post-prostate biopsy sepsis was 2.8% and no deaths were reported. Risk factors identified on multivariate analysis were noncompliance with antibiotic prophylaxis according to guidelines, antibiotic treatment in the previous 6 months and a history of prostatitis.

“…Asymptomatic bacteriuria, febrile urinary tract infections (UTI), acute bacterial prostatitis, orchitis, epididymitis, and urinary sepsis represent the broad spectrum of possible infectious complications 1,45,46 . Accordingly, antibiotic prophylaxis is recommended as the standard of care 1,47,48 .…”

“…Fluoroquinolone resistant organisms have been identified in 10-30% of patients undergoing rectal swab culture before PB 47,[49][50][51][52] , although rates of clinical infectious complications are lower at approximately 1-17.5% 7,45,46,48,[53][54][55][56][57] . Most infections are self-limiting and can be managed in the outpatient setting 7,45 .…”

“…This imprecision is due to the fact that it remains impossible to visualize the exact localization of PB by using a 2D US probe, so that the biopsies often do not correspond to the prostatic region that was initially targeted. Therefore, repeat PBs are often necessary to disclose PC, associated with the risk of acute prostatitis and sepsis amounting up to 5% [4] and 3%, respectively [5] .…”

“…Similarly, the European Association of Urology guidelines recommend single-dose prophylaxis for low-risk patients and prolonged courses of prophylaxis only in high-risk patients [27]. However, according to a recent prospective multicenter study, in cases of guideline noncompliance, quinolones were administered for durations not in accordance with the recommended 1-day treatment by 75% of investigators [28]. Asian men are at risk for infectious complications because of possible high exposure to antibiotics as a medicine or in meat [15,26].…”
