Complications which prolong hospitalization occur after 10% of prostatectomies, depending on the type of operation. Epididymitis develops after prostatectomy especially in postoperative urinary tract infection, and in patients with risk factors (retention of urine, recurrent residual urine, infected urine, and after adenomectomy). In comparison with the time before specific antibiotic therapy, postoperative epididymitis has fallen by 50% with preliminary antibiotic treatment. Postoperative epididymitis very rarely occurs under treatment with gentamicin.
根据手术类型的不同，10%的前列腺切除术后会出现延长住院时间的并发症。附睾炎尤其在术后尿路感染以及有危险因素（尿潴留、反复残余尿、感染性尿液以及腺瘤切除术后）的患者中，会在前列腺切除术后发生。与特定抗生素治疗前的时间相比，术前使用抗生素治疗使术后附睾炎的发生率降低了50%。在庆大霉素治疗下，术后附睾炎极少发生。
