Because the large intestine normally contains many bacteria, these operations carry a higher risk of infection and other postoperative complications. Some surgeons prescribe oral antibiotics before surgery to reduce the number of bacteria in the bowel, while others do not use this approach routinely.\n\nIn this study, children scheduled for elective colorectal surgery will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group will receive oral antibiotics before surgery, while the other group will receive standard preparation without oral antibiotics. All children will otherwise receive the same surgical and postoperative care according to hospital guidelines.\n\nResearchers will compare the two groups for important outcomes including surgical site infection, leakage from the bowel connection (anastomotic leak), and length of hospital stay. Additional information regarding recovery and postoperative complications will also be collected.\n\nParticipation in the study will not affect the quality of treatment provided. Parents or guardians may withdraw their child from the study at any time without affecting routine medical care. The results of this research may help determine whether preoperative oral antibiotics should be routinely used in children undergoing elective colorectal surgery and may contribute to improving surgical outcomes and reducing healthcare costs.",[103,104],"Bowel Cleansing Prior to Clinical Procedures","Colorectal Anastomosis",[106,107,108,109,110,111,112,113,114,115,116,117,118,119,39],"pediatric","colorectal","colostomy","duhamel","closure","hirschprung's disease","anorectal malformation","soave pull through","swenson","abdomino-perineal pull through","perineal injury","perineal wounds","ARM","Bowel preparation","2026-07-16",{"date":122,"type":123},"2026-07-20","ACTUAL",{"date":125,"type":123},"2025-01-06",{"date":127,"type":97},"2026-08",{"name":80,"class":6},1]
