The authors caution growing use of intraoperative 0.05% chlorhexidine in hydrophilic penile prosthesis surgery may be misguided, noting signals of higher infection risk & arguing even small increases in infection outweigh any convenience/cost savings. 🔗 bit.ly/4m86jAq

In a 14‑institution study of 2,150 cases, intraoperative 0.05% chlorhexidine gluconate use with hydrophilic inflatable penile prostheses was linked to higher infection rates (4.6% vs 2.1%) suggesting caution until further prospective data are available 🔗bit.ly/4rUU6Ag
