BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to assess the incidence of bacterobilia at the time of a pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and the association of resistant bacteria in bile to surgical site infections (SSI). METHODS: This was a retrospective cohort study including patients undergoing PD in a single center between May 2016 and October 2020. Data of preoperative biliary drainage (PBD), intraoperative biliary cultures (IBC) and postoperative complications were analysed to assess the risk factors for resistant bacteria in IBC and SSIs. RESULTS: Of 361 patients included, 254 (70%) had undergone PBD. Second-generation cephalosporin resistant bacteria were found in IBC of 183 (64%) of all the patients. PBD was the only risk factor for second-generation cephalosporin resistance. The risk for second-generation cephalosporin resistance was more than 20-fold in patients with PBD [n = 170/254 (67%) (OR 22.58 (95% CI, 9.61-53.01), p < 0.001)] compared to patients who did not have PBD (n = 13/107 (12%)). Also, if the time between PBD and surgery was 2 months or more the second-generation cephalosporin resistance in IBC increased the risk for SSIs (OR 4.14 (95% CI, 1.18-14.51), p = 0.027). CONCLUSION: The second-generation cephalosporin resistance in IBC is common in patients who have undergone PBD. Broad-spectrum antibiotics in prophylaxis may be beneficial for these patients.
