ORLANDO, FL USA (UroToday.com) - At the infection/inflammation poster session, Dr. Michael Liss discussed a timely issue of fecal carriage of fluoroquinolone resistance and prostate biopsy infection.
BERKELEY, CA (UroToday.com) - Community-onset acute pyelonephritis (CO-APN) is a common bacterial infection.
PURPOSE - Children with normal urinary tract anatomy and function and highly recurrent urinary tract infection (rUTI) may have a lack of alternatives when antibiotic prophylaxis and "watchful waiting" approaches fail. This retrospective review reports the outcomes in children who received a fluoroquinolone/probiotic combination in an attempt to quantify a reduction in rUTI that was perceived by both clinicians and patients' families.
OBJECTIVE - To evaluate asymptomatic men with elevated serum prostate specific antigen (PSA) to determine whether a six-week course of fluoroquinolone antibiotics lowers serum PSA and affects recommendations for prostate biopsy.
