| Abstract: | No official guidelines exist for perioperative antibiotic use in noncardiac thoracic surgery. Despite some conflicting data and few randomized clinical trials there exists strong evidence supporting the use of perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis in pulmonary resection. This article discusses the evidence-based indications for antibiotic prophylaxis after lung resection, esophageal surgery, and lung transplantation. |
