| pubmed-article:1003306 | pubmed:abstractText | 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. | lld:pubmed |
