[Preoperative biliary culture and short-term antibiotic therapy].
The author have considered 92 patients operated for cronic calcolous cholecystitis (cholecystectomy). All patients have undergoing an intraoperative bile drawing and liver biopsy with hystological examination of the gallbladder wall. The results show a low incidence of positive bile cultures that become nigligible in patients who have undergoing the short term antibiotic therapy. This make think that infectious moment in cronic pathology of the biliary tract have very little value.
