Summary

Laparoscopy is a surgical procedure indicated for most gynecological pathologies and presents numerous advantages over laparotomy, among them lower rates of surgical site infection and less comorbidity feverish. Despite this, the use of antibiotic prophylaxis is widely accepted and performed by most gynecologists. However, there isn't literature evidence to support the routine use of antibiotics in the prophylaxis of wound infection on laparoscopic pelvic surgery .Therefore, this study will evaluate the need for the use of antibiotic prophylaxis in gynecological laparoscopies not including opening hollow viscera.
