Abstract：
:Twenty-two patients undergoing major head and neck surgery were included in a randomized trial to value the efficacy and side effects of parenteral short-term antibiotic prophylaxis of post-operative infections. Two different antibiotic regimens were compared: group A, ceftazidime i.v. (2 g) in three doses (half an hour before surgery, 8 and 16 hours, from the first dose); group B, netilmicin (100 mg) plus clindamycin (600 mg i.v.), following the same chronological schedule. Overall infection rate was 18% (4/22): all post-operative infections occurred in group A patients, including one case of wound infection and 3 mixed infections (wound infection associated with lung infection), with a significant reduction of post-operative infection rate in group B patients (p = 0.045; Fisher's exact test).
