Abstrakt: Purpose: To investigate the effect of pre-biopsy rectal swab and urine screening combined with a risk-adapted antibiotic treatment strategy on reducing post-biopsy infections (PBIs) following multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI)/ transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) fusion-targeted transrectal prostate biopsy (TRPBx).
Methods: 1119 Patients undergoing mpMRI-TRUS fusion TRPBx between June 2017 and February 2024 were included. Patients were screened for rectal extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL)/multi-resistant gram-negative (MRGN) and urinary pathogens. Standard-risk patients (rectal non-ESBL/MRGN-carriers) either received Cefuroxime (2017-2020) or Ceftriaxone (2020-2024) intravenously before biopsy. For high-risk patients (rectal ESBL/MRGN-carriers) intravenous Ertapenem was used. Patients with positive urine cultures received oral targeted prophylaxis. PBIs were the primary outcome of the study. We used uni- and multivariable logistic regression analysis (MLRA) to reveal predictors for the main outcome.
Results: Rectal ESBL/MRGN prevalence was 5.5%. For standard-risk patients, PBI-rates were 8.1% and 0.24% for Cefuroxime and Ceftriaxone (p < 0.0001), respectively. Only 1.7% of high-risk patients treated with Ertapenem developed PBI. On MLRA, Cefuroxime (OR 38.7, 95%-CI: 10.9-246), oral Ciprofloxacin (OR 103, 95%-CI: 10.8-994), other oral targeted antibiotics (OR 42.7, 95%-CI: 1.86-496) (reference Ceftriaxone, all p < 0.005) were significant predictors for PBI whereas Ertapenem (OR 7.30 95%-CI: 0.34-77.4, p = 0.11) was not.
Conclusion: By integrating rectal swab ESBL/MRGN and urine screening, we developed a tailored antibiotic treatment strategy, resulting in low PBI-rates following TRPBx. Carbapenem-based treatment of high-risk patients is crucial. Ceftriaxone should be considered for routine use in standard-risk patients as it offers very low PBI-rates.
