Evaluating the role of postoperative oral antibiotic administration in artificial urinary sphincter and inflatable penile prosthesis explantation: A nationwide analysis

Adamsky MA, et al. - This research inquired if postoperative oral antibiotics were related to decreased risk of explantation following artificial urinary sphincter (AUS) or inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP) placement.

Owing to the individual risk related to the antibiotic usage and increasing bacterial resistance, the role of oral antibiotics after prosthetic placement ought to be reconsidered. Moreover, it warranted advanced research.
