title: [The effect of selected factors on the course of wound healing after surgery for laryngeal neoplasms].
abstract: Finding of the a etiologic factors and participation of bacteria flora in wound healing in laryngeal cancer treatment was the purpose of our study. Investigations were performed in 27 patients. Swabs were taken from the postoperative wounds. Detailed identifications of the bacteria flora and antibiotic susceptibility of bacteria were performed. Wound healing was estimated according to extension of the carcinoma, applied antibiotics, state of the oral cavity, the kind of bacteriological flora isolated after surgical treatment from postoperative wounds. It was found that wound healing depended on the extension of carcinoma, as well as, type of isolated bacteria and antibiotic therapy used. The proper healing of postoperative wounds was not dependent on the state of the oral cavity and the dentition. The main cause of postoperative complication of wounds was methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
