ABSTRACT
Introduction &

Objective:

There have been anecdotal reports of adverse events associated with the COVID-19 vaccine, especially within media coverage of the vaccine's initial rollout. We aim to quantify and analyze urologic adverse events and symptoms after COVID-19 vaccination. Method(s) We queried the FDA Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS) for all reported symptoms following COVID-19 vaccination, as well as following any vaccination, for the period of December 2020 through April 1st, 2022. We identified fifteen common adverse urologic events. Using proportional reporting ratio (PRR) and reporting odds ratio (ROR), we analyzed the reporting data in the VAERS database. Result(s) A total of 6,027,972 vaccinations, including 3,666,529 COVID-19 vaccinations were identified from the queried period with 1,560,835 and 803,169 adverse events reported, respectively. Out of all adverse event reports reported following COVID-19 vaccination, the most common adverse event was urinary tract infections which only accounted for 2,263 adverse events. The median age of the patients reporting urologic symptoms was 50 years old (IQR 22-64) and 66% of the patients were female. Conclusion(s) Urologic symptoms reported after COVID-19 vaccination continue to be extremely rare in total number but furthermore, none of the adverse urologic events had positive signals. Although there have been anecdotal reports of adverse events associated with the COVID-19 vaccine, a review of the VAERS database did not find any positive signals. Our findings suggest these adverse events are not related to the COVID-19 vaccine but further evaluation and analysis are ongoing.
