Use of clindamycin and gentamicin in pediatric colonic surgery. 1976

Y Berlatzky, and S Z Rubin, and J Michel, and T Sacks, and M Schiller

The combination of clindamycin and gentamicin was used to treat 25 pediatric surgical patients. In 9 of the 11 patients with perforated appendicitis, B. fragilis was isolated from the peritoneal cavity. There was a rapid clinical response to treatment in all cases. No side effects were observed. Clindamycin and gentamicin seem to be the antibiotics of choice for such infections.
