Randomized Controlled Trial of Antibiotic Prophylaxis in Elective Laparoscopic Colorectal Surgery: Oral and Systemic Versus Systemic Antibiotics
The use of antibiotic prophylaxis in patients who undergo elective colorectal surgery is now
accepted universally. But the rout of administration should be systematic, oral, or both is
controversial. Furthermore, although many trails have been performed, no trial limited to
laparoscopic surgery is performed. We compare 2 approaches - oral and systemic versus
systemic antibiotic prophylaxis - in limited to elective laparoscopic colorectal surgery.
