Prevention of recurrent bacterial cystitis by intravesical administration of hyaluronic acid: a pilot study

Abstract

In this preliminary study, bladder instillations of HA had a significant effect on the rate of UTI in women with a history of recurrent UTIs. The bladder instillation of HA is an acceptable and promising therapeutic alternative in patients with recurrent UTI. Expanded placebo controlled clinical trials examining this application of HA are currently underway.
