In recent years, fosfomycin has been increasingly used as an alternative for antibiotic prophylaxis due to the increasing resistance of pathogens to fluoroquinolones, its good safety profile and ease of use. Results of several studies dedicated to the efficiency of fosfomycin are highlighted in this review. Fosfomycin demonstrates significant advantages as a drug for the prevention of infectious and inflammatory complications in patients after prostate biopsy, especially in case of increasing resistance to fluoroquinolones. Its efficacy, safety and ease of use make it an attractive choice and a reliable alternative in the context of increasing antibiotic resistance. Combination regimens with fluoroquinolones may be preferable for high-risk group.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Трансректальная биопсия предстательной железы (ТРБП) остается стандартным методом диагностики рака простаты, однако она связана с высоким риском инфекционных осложнений. В последние годы фосфомицин привлекает внимание как альтернатива фторхинолонам для антибиотикопрофилактики из-за растущей резистентности патогенов к фторхинолонам, его хорошего профиля безопасности и удобства применения. Настоящий обзор освещает данные нескольких исследований, посвященных эффективности фосфомицина в этом контексте. Фосфомицин демонстрирует значительные преимущества как средство для профилактики инфекционно-воспалительных осложнений у пациентов после ТРБП, особенно в условиях увеличивающейся резистентности к фторхинолонам. Его эффективность, безопасность и удобство использования делают его перспективным выбором и надежной альтернативой в условиях растущей антибиотикорезистентности. Комбинированные режимы с фторхинолонами могут быть предпочтительны для групп высокого риска.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>prostate biopsy</kwd><kwd>infectious and inflammatory complications</kwd><kwd>transrectal prostate biopsy</kwd><kwd>transperineal prostate biopsy</kwd><kwd>fosfomycin</kwd><kwd>antibiotic resistance</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>биопсия простаты</kwd><kwd>инфекционно-воспалительные осложнения</kwd><kwd>трансректальная биопсия простаты</kwd><kwd>трансперинеальная биопсия простаты</kwd><kwd>фосфомицин</kwd><kwd>антибиотикорезистентность</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Cornford P., Tilki D., van den Bergh R.C.N., Briers E., Patient Advocate (European Prostate Cancer Coalition/Europa UOMO), D.
