March 4, 2019 updated by: Rybakov Evgeny, MD, State Scientific Centre of Coloproctology, Russian Federation

Randomized Controlled Trial of Antibiotic Prophylaxis in Rectal Cancer Surgery: Oral With Intravenous Versus Intravenous Antibiotics.

This is a randomized, controlled, parallel study to determine the efficiency of oral antibiotics in reduction of surgical site infection (SSI) in rectal cancer surgery.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Patients undergoing rectal cancer surgery in a single centre will assigned randomly to combined preoperative oral antibiotics (metronidazole and erythromycin) and perioperative intravenous antibiotics (cefmetazole) (oral+intravenous group) or to perioperative intravenous antibiotics (cefmetazole) alone (intravenous group). The primary endpoint is the overall rate of SSI.
