Antibiotic Prophylaxis in Percutaneous Nephrostomy Placements and Replacements for Malignant Urinary Tract Obstruction. A Retrospective Cohort Study
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 19 May 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This study aims to find out whether taking antibiotics to prevent a urinary tract infection after a medical procedure called percutaneous nephrostomy (placement of a catheter directly into the kidney to keep it working after the urinary tract has been blocked by a malignant tumour) actually prevents a urinary tract infection, compared to not taking antibiotic prophylaxis.
