[Stent-associated urosepsis, personalized bacteriophage therapy].

In the era of antibiotic resistance, strict control of foci of infection (for example, a long-term stent) and adherence to the timing of drainage removal are necessary. The spread of pan-resistant pathogens requires the development of effective alternative antimicrobial measures, in particular, bacteriophage therapy. A clinical case of a 42-year-old patient with a closed spinal cord injury, lower paraplegia, pelvic organs dysfunction, post-traumatic right ureteral stricture, and right kidney stones is presented in the article. The patient developed stent-associated urosepsis due to pan-resistant Klebsiella pneumonia after endoscopic removal of a long-term right ureteral stent (over 3 months) with endotoxic shock, disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome and wound sepsis, which was treated using personalized local bacteriophage therapy.
