Preoperative prophylaxis with metronidazole suppositorium to patients undergoing appendectomy was introduced in our department in 1981. One hundred consecutive patients who had an appendectomy in the period May to October 1988 were reviewed to assess the efficiency of the prophylaxis. Postoperative infections were found in seven cases, but none were serious or caused sequelae. The clinical results of this simple, low-cost practice are satisfying, and we therefore intend to continue using metronidazole suppositorium as prophylaxis before appendectomy.
1981年，我们科室开始对接受阑尾切除术的患者采用甲硝唑栓剂进行术前预防。回顾了1988年5月至10月期间连续100例行阑尾切除术的患者，以评估预防措施的效果。术后发现7例感染，但均不严重或未引起后遗症。这种简单、低成本做法的临床效果令人满意，因此我们打算继续在阑尾切除术前使用甲硝唑栓剂作为预防措施。
