summary

Postoperative course was evaluated in 100 patients with prostate adenoma after transurethral electroresection. The patients were divided into three groups. Before resection patients in group I received a single intravenous dose of 200 mgr of .netromycin, and patients in group II received a single dose of 200 mgr vibra-mycin. Patients in group III received vibramycin as a continuous treatment only after electroresection. Patients in groups I and II demonstrated high fever less fre±uently, for a shorter time, and were mostly asymptomatic. Single intravenous administration of netramycin proved more effective.
