title: [Parietal complications of cholecystectomy : results of prophylactic antibiotic therapy with cefazoline (author's transl)].
abstract: Patients undergoing cholecystectomy were randomly divided into two groups. The effects of a single injection of one gram of cefazoline given thirty minutes before operation to 30 patients were compared with those obtained in a second group of 29 untreated cases. The efficiency of the second generation cephalosporins in preventing postoperative complications of this type was confirmed. Prophylactic administration of this antibiotic therapy before uncomplicated biliary tract surgery can significantly reduce the incidence of postoperative parietal infections and therefore the duration of hospitalization.
