Bacteriological Profile of Bile and Antibiogram in Cholecystectomy Patients
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 4
Abstract
Cholelithiasis is one of the most common surgical condition affecting gastrointestinal tract in North India and cholecystectomy is one of the most common surgeries done. Aims and Objectives: This study was done to evaluate the microbiological profile of bile from gall bladder in patients undergoing cholecystectomy and to determine the appropriate antibiotic for preoperative prophylaxis in cholecystectomy patients based on the microbiological profile of bile. Material and Methods: The study was conducted in 100 patients who had undergone cholecystectomy in our unit in the department of surgery over a period of one year from July 2014 to June 2015. The samples were processed in the Department of Microbiology. Results: 22% of bile samples were found positive for microorganisms. E coli was found to be the commonest organism found in 64% of positive samples. Conclusion: Bile is generally sterile but might be infected in cholelithiasis. Incidence of bacterbilia varies from 10% to 70%.
