    Journal: Urol Res; 1986; 14(4):179-82. PubMed ID: 3787882.
    Abstract:
    The role of the anterior urethral culture and its relationship to post-operative urine infection in patients undergoing transurethral surgery was studied in 43 consecutive patients. A significant relationship between the anterior urethral culture and subsequent urine infection in patients with a sterile pre-operative urine was noted (p less than 0.01).
