Objective: To describe surgical site infection (SSI) after transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) from the French national database.
Methods: A national SSI surveillance system was implemented in 1999. Each year, the network included urology departments that included at least two months plus one month follow-up, or at least 100 consecutive targeted surgical procedures. A dataset of patients who underwent urology procedures during the six-year period 2008-2013 was made available. SSI diagnosis was made according to standardised CDC criteria. Descriptive analyses were performed using SAS software version 9.4.
Results: A total of 12,897 TURPs were performed by 89 urology departments. The crude incidence SSI rate was 2.43 (95% confidence interval = 2.16-2.79). The mean delay for diagnosis was 11.9 ± 8.9 days. The treatment of the SSI required a new surgical intervention in 1.35%. In the multilevel multivariate analysis, ASA score and duration of follow-up were the only parameters correlated with the SSI rate.
Conclusions: On more than 12,000 TURPs surveyed, the SSI rate was 2.43. ASA score and duration of follow-up were the only parameters correlated with the SSI rate.

Background: Prophylactic parenteral administration of antibiotics is strongly recommended to prevent surgical site infection (SSI). Cefoxitin is mainly administered intravenously in colorectal surgery. The current standard method for administering prophylactic antibiotics in adults is to administer a fixed dose quickly before skin incision.

Recent findings suggest that combining mechanical bowel preparation (MBP) and preoperative oral antibiotics (OAs) decreases the risk of incisional surgical site infections (iSSIs) in colorectal surgery; however, this finding remains controversial. This study examined the efficacy of OAs and MBP in colorectal surgery using propensity score matching (PSM). : Between January 2015 and December 2020, 559 patients with colorectal tumors underwent MBP followed by colorectal surgery.

To determine whether a closed dressing protocol reduces the surgical site infections (SSI) rate compared to conventional closing techniques. Patients who underwent lumbar spine surgery at two neurosurgical centers were retrospectively included from June 2015 to December 2019. Data on patients, general risk factors, and surgical risk factors for SSI were collected.

Background: Numerous studies have identified typical risk factors for surgical site infections (SSI) and fascial dehiscence (FD), but patients with gynecological cancer are often excluded. This study aimed to assess the key risk factors for SSI and FD in gynecological oncological patients undergoing median laparotomy.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of patients who underwent median laparotomy for gynecological cancer between January 2017 and December 2020.

Introduction: Surgical site infection (SSI) is one of the most serious postoperative complications following instrumented spinal surgery. We previously reported the potential of continuous local antibiotic perfusion (CLAP) to retain implants for patients with SSI following instrumented spinal surgery. We conducted a retrospective multicenter study to elucidate the efficacy and limitations of CLAP for patients with SSI following instrumented spinal surgery.
