Summary

In colorectal surgery, the use of prophylactic antibiotics is recommended. The standard use of antibiotics for colorectal surgery is three doses.

It has been reported that the surgical site infection rates of laparoscopic colorectal surgery are lower than open colorectal surgery. However, the evidence of proper application of antibiotic for laparoscopic colorectal surgery is still not enough.

The investigators are researching the efficacy and safety of one dose prophylactic antibiotic in laparoscopic colorectal surgery.
