ABSTRACT Introduction Understanding the microbial changes within the surgical site may enhance our understanding of the origin and subsequent role of microbes in the causation of incisional surgical site infections (SSIs). In this study we used 16S rRNA sequencing to establish the dynamic microbiota of the surgical site in patients undergoing bowel ...
