Abstract:The impact of third-generation cephalosporin-resistant Enterobacterales (3GCR-E) rectal colonization in the development of subsequent infection after surgery is controversial. In particular, there is a lack of data in the context of hepato-pancreato-biliary (HPB) surgery. The objective of this study was to assess the prevalence of 3GCR-E intestinal carriage among patients undergoing elective HPB resection surgery and its impact on the incidence and etiology of surgical site infections (SSIs).
