[Efficacy of Cefsulodin in pyocyanic otologic infections, apropos of 55 cases].
Our work consists of a comparative study of 4 therapeutic protocols for treatment of otological infection from the pyocyanic bacillus, and more specifically of 19 patients with a necrotizing malignant otitis, 24 patients with perichondritis and 12 patients suffering from a post-operative infection. The association of Cefsulodin (a 3rd generation Cephalosporin) and Gentamicin gave the best results. A major decrease of the time of treatment and a total absence of infectious complications were in fact recorded. The adjuvant therapies were duly observed for the 4 protocols, in particularly the surgical treatment and the treatment of the site (diabetes).
