[Postoperative wound infections in surgery of stomach cancer. A bacteriologic analysis].
We reviewed 50 gastric cancer operations during the period from September 1984 to August 1985. The material illustrates the dominance of gram-negative rods and non-sporeforming anaerobes of endogenous gastric cancer microflora and also in postoperative wound infections. The organisms most frequently causing infection after operations are endogenous source. The postoperative wound infection rate was 36%. Therefore, the necessity of adequate use of antibacterial chemotherapeutics in wound infections is emphasized.
