The concentration of Cefoperazone (CPZ) in urological organs and serum was measured after the intravenous administration of 2 g of CPZ. Serum levels on healthy adults attained a maximal value of 122.1 +/- 4.2 micrograms/ml at 30 minutes. Serum levels of patients operated under general anesthesia attained a maximal value of 159.0 +/- 13.9 micrograms/ml at 30 minutes. Serum concentration on operated cases continued to be 1.3-2.2 fold higher than that of the healthy adults. Prostate tissue levels attained a maximal value of 80.9 +/- 3.6 micrograms/g at 30 minutes, vesical tissue levels were 52.1 +/- 1.3 microgram/g at 60 minutes and renal tissue were 94.0 +/- 14.5 micrograms/g at 90 minutes. Judging from the minimal inhibitory concentration of CPZ, CPZ seemed to be clinically useful in the treatment of urological infections.
