DasGupta R et al. – The authors propose using an aminoglycoside with a penicillin for high–risk cases (e.g. endoscopic stone surgery) while low–risk cases (e.g. flexible cystoscopy with no risk factors) might be managed without such prophylaxis. Pathogenic patterns and resistance rates should be monitored regularly.
