The test is rather time-consuming, although it can be performed by nurses. In our series of 47 patients we have had no complications. We advocate the bladder wash-out test in cases in which absolute localization of infection is necessary for diagnosis, therapeutic choice and prognosis. © 1981 by The American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.FiguresReferencesRelatedDetailsCited byNovick A (2018) Editorial CommentJournal of Urology, VOL. 129, NO. 5, (917-917), Online publication date: 1-May-1983.Huland H, Gonnermann D and Clausen C (2018) Bacterial Localization in Patients with End Stage Renal Disease to Avoid Bilateral Nephrectomy Before Renal TransplantationJournal of Urology, VOL. 129, NO. 5, (915-917), Online publication date: 1-May-1983.
