Abstract: 
Perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis in endourology is used to reduce or avoid postoperative surgical site infections and complicated urinary tract infections. Special attention is paid to antibiotic stewardship strategies to avoid the continuing selection of antibiotics and multidrug-resistant uropathogens as well as collateral damage to the microbiome. The individual risk profile, the local resistance situation, the expected pathogen spectrum, the pharmacokinetics and the approval of each substance are important aspects to be considered in the indications and selection of perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis. Furthermore, applicable hygiene regulations and the surgical care of an intervention must be observed.
