[Studies on the diffusion of cephapirin into prostatic tissue].

After i.v.-application of 2 grams of Cephaprin (= Bristocef) to 13 patients with prostatic adenoma the mean serum concentrations after 30 minutes were 50 microgram/ml and 21.5 microngram/ml after 60 minutes. The corresponding tissue values were 20.8 and microgram/g respectively in prostatic tissue. The evaluated serumand tissue cncentrations are suited to the therapy of infections with cephapirin sensitive rods.
