title: [Antibacterial therapy in treating the wound after animal bites].
abstract: A total of 150 patients with wounds due to animal bites were treated. The bacteriological analysis showed that during the first 24 hours after the bite the main microbes isolated from the wound contents were staphylococci and Coli bacteria. At later periods gramnegative microflora predominated. Prolonged washing of the wounds with furacin and sodium bicarbonate, 2 per cent boric acid after the wound dissection with establishing primary and secondary sutures, antibacterial therapy with semisynthetic penicillins and monomycin provided rapid healing of the wounds in 144 patients.
