[Antibiotic therapy in post-cesarean endomyometritis. Comparison of ampicillin-gentamicin and ampicillin-metronidazole regimens]. / Antibióticoterapia en endomiometritis postcesárea. Comparación de los esquemas ampicilina-gentamicina y ampicilina-metronidazol.

Two therapeutic combinations for the treatment of post-cesarean endomyometritis are compared: A, ampicillin plus gentamycin; B, penicillin plus metronidazole, in 40 patients. There were no failures with any of the combinations. However, hospital stay and the time elapsed for resuturing a dehiscent surgical wound, as well as the average cost of treatment, were significantly less for combination B.
