Article Synopsis
- The study examined the effects of long-term postoperative antibiotic use after urethral reconstruction on patient outcomes and the development of multidrug-resistant bacteria.
- It involved a retrospective analysis of 147 patients, comparing those who received antibiotic prophylaxis to those who did not, and found that antibiotic use was linked to a higher presence of multidrug-resistant bacteria in urine cultures.
- Ultimately, the findings suggest that while prophylactic antibiotics do not improve surgical recovery outcomes, they increase the risk of antibiotic resistance, advising against their routine use in such procedures.

Stay-at-home guidelines to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 further limited the accessibility of office-based specialty care for SM.
