Intravesical Gentamicin for Prevention of Recurrent Urinary Tract Infections in Patients With Neurogenic Lower Urinary Tract Dysfunction Performing Intermittent Catheterization: A Systematic Review

However, the small number of studies, heterogeneous protocols, and absence of randomized controlled trials underscore the need for high-quality research to define standardized regimens and inform broader clinical adoption.
