Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Increasing antibiotic resistance also has an impact on perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis (PAP). This narrative review evaluates fosfomycin trometamol (FT) as PAP in endourological interventions. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Nine clinical studies including 4 randomized comparative studies were analyzed. A total of 1,614 patients received FT as PAP for different endourological procedures and extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy [ESWL; i.e. cystoscopy (n = 498), urodynamic studies (n = 39), ureteropyeloscopy (n = 10), urethrotomy (n = 20), lithotripsy (n = 15), transurethral resection of bladder tumors (n = 139), transurethral resection of the prostate (n = 843), ESWL (n = 20), ureterorenoendoscopic lithotripsy (n = 18), percutaneous nephrostomic lithotripsy (n = 12)]. RESULTS: In 8 clinical studies, FT was shown to be effective in preventing healthcare-associated urinary tract infections (HAUTIs). One study showed no benefit. The usual dosage regimen was oral administration of 3 g of FT 3 h before and 24 h after the procedure. In 1 randomized comparative study investigating HAUTIs after diagnostic cystoscopy, it could also be shown that a single oral dose of 3 g of FT 3 h before cystoscopy was as effective as a double dose. CONCLUSION: According to the published results, for traumatic endourological interventions and surgical procedures, an oral dosage of 3 g of FT 3 h before and 24 h after the procedure and only 1 (prior) oral dosage for diagnostic procedures might be an alternative if PAP is indicated. Limitations of the studies are the low numbers of patients included for most indications. 2013 S. Karger AG, Basel.
