Abstract

The development of postoperative infections is influenced by both host and external factors. The present report focuses on the influence of prophylactic agents on the apparent cause of infection after cesarean section and vaginal hysterectomy. The correlation between in vitro susceptibility patterns of potential pathogens and normal flora and in vivo response is also considered.
