Summary
This study is a randomized controlled non-blinded double arm study examining the effect of
routine postoperative oral antibiotic therapy in preventing postoperative surgical site
infections after breast reconstruction. The investigators hypothesize that use of
prophylactic antibiotics after breast reconstruction does not reduce surgical site
infections.
