Surgical site infections after microscopically controlled skin surgery in immunocompromised patients: a retrospective two-center cohort study

The data on the risk of surgical site infections (SSI) after skin surgery in patients undergoing immunosuppressive treatment are limited and the results of the existing single-center studies are controversial. At the same time, perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis (PAP) for immunocompromised patient...

description The data on the risk of surgical site infections (SSI) after skin surgery in patients undergoing immunosuppressive treatment are limited and the results of the existing single-center studies are controversial. At the same time, perioperative antibiotic prophylaxis (PAP) for immunocompromised patients seems to be overused. We performed a retrospective analysis of the SSI rates after extensive dermatosurgical procedures performed from January 2017 to December 2017 in patients with impaired immune status due to a hematological disorder or immunosuppressive treatment at two German dermatosurgical centers. The SSI rate in immunocompromised patients was 6.7%. The independent risk factors for SSI found in the studied population were the occurrence of bleeding after one of the surgical stages and the use of oral anticoagulation with two different agents (the combination of acetylsalicylic acid and a direct oral anticoagulant). 44.4% (4/9) of the procedures complicated with an SSI involved wound closure with a skin flap, which was statistically significant ( p  = 0.041). Other risk factors identified were older age of the patients and increased duration of hospitalization ( p
