Pharmacokinetics of double-dose cefuroxime in porcine intervertebral disc and vertebral cancellous bone—a randomized microdialysis study
Abstract
BACKGROUND CONTEXT Postoperative pyogenic spondylodiscitis is associated with prolonged antimicrobial therapy and high relapse rates. Cefuroxime is a time-dependent antimicrobial widely used for intravenous perioperative prophylaxis in spine surgery.
