Conclusions The use of prophylactic antibiotics is effective for reducing the incidence of SSI and superficial SSI but is not effective for preventing deep SSI in low-risk patients who underwent elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy
Background s/ Aims The role of prophylactic antibiotics for laparoscopic cholecystectomy in low-risk patients is still unclear .
This study aim ed to verify the conclusion of previous meta-analyses concerning the effectiveness of antibiotic prophylaxis for elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy in low-risk patients .
