摘要：

In a prospective, randomized trial metronidazole was found to be significantly better than povidone‐iodine in reducing the incidence of wound infection after appendicectomy (P < 0.005). The metronidazole was given as a 3‐day course and was found to be as effective as the established 7‐day course. Over 65 per cent of the wound infections presented after the patients had been discharged from hospital. Copyright © 1979 British Journal of Surgery Society Ltd.
