The authors have studied the use of sodic piperacillin in surgical gynecological prophylaxis. The drug, used in the intravenous tract, has proved efficacious for broad spectrum of antibacterial action versus gram+, gram-, and anaerobic and aerobic. It has shown an excellent tolerability by reducing hospital surgical infections (11% of cases) and sepsis (9.2% of cases) with social, economic and professional advantages.
