UTI 1 day before my BA, will my surgeon cancel my surgery?

Thank
you very much for your question, and I’m sorry to hear about the urinary tract
infection so close to your scheduled breast augmentation. Contact your
operating surgeon to discuss your current UTI situation. He/she may be able to
provide reassurance and continue with the procedure. However, moving forward
with the breast augmentation will be up to his/her discretion and personal
protocols. Carefully following your doctor’s advice will ensure the safest
results.

Breast augmentation is an elective surgery, so surgeons recommend patients be clear from all signs of infection before the procedure. Studies show that infection rates are higher in patients with active infections. I would advise you to contact the surgeon's office. First of all, you would want to get a formal urinalysis to confirm you have a urinary tract infection. If this test is negative, you can proceed with surgery. If it is positive, you will need to be treated and tested again. Once you have a clean urinalysis, you will be clear for surgery.
I know you must be frustrated with your circumstances, but the inconvenience of rescheduling until you are healthy is better than living with a lifetime of breast augmentation complications.
Be honest with your surgeon and contact him to get a formal urinalysis. For all you know, the study may be negative and you might be able to proceed with surgery.
Good Luck!

This is up to your surgeons decision... You are already are taking antibiotics, prophylactic antibiotics usually cover UTI pathogens... Although is distant the infection site form the surgical field, theoretical implant or wound contamination is a possibility... Best regards!

Dear lolo20,every plastic surgeon has his policy. It would be the best to call your plastic surgeon and discuss this with him/her. Daniel Barrett, MD, MHA, MS

Thanks for your question. I suggest contacting your surgeon as soon as possible to discuss how to proceed. Best of luck.

Please call your doctor ASAP and discuss, sorry this is occurring so close to surgery.  I wish you the best of luck.  

Most Plastic Surgeons would not want to place sterile implants in a patient that is experiencing any type of infection.  This decision will need to be made by your physician.   Good luck.

Thank you for your question. I agree with the other colleagues that the best course of action would be to contact your surgeon immediately. Every surgeon has his guidelines.  In my practice in UK, an active infection requiring treatment (such as antibiotics), is an indication for postponing the operation. In elective surgery, there is no reason to take risks unnecessarily.All the best.Andrea Marando, Plastic and Cosmetic Surgeon, Manchester, UK

Thank you for the question.  You do not want to have any source of active infection at the time of breast augmentation surgery. Make sure you discuss your concerns with your plastic surgeon as well.
Best wishes.

Call your surgeon at your earliest convenience. It is possible a high dosage antibiotic can be prescribed to allow you to proceed with surgery. It is up to your surgeons discretion.
