Assessment of Microbiota and Their Drug Resistance in Chronic Fistulousn Tracts

摘要

Background: Bacteria colonizing an enterocutaneous fistula tract have not been clarified. The aims of this study were to investigate the pathogen spectra of fistulous tracts and their resistance to antibiotics in patients with chronic fistulas. Methods: We conducted a one-year prospective single-center study. In the absence of significant sepsis, consecutively stabilized patients with chronic enterocutaneous fistula were included. Microbiology and antimicrobial susceptibility of isolates from th
