الإجابة: A. A single dose preoperative parenteral dose of antibiotics effective against aerobes and anaerobes
Elective resection of a non-obstructing colon cancer is a clean-contaminated case. It needs prophylactic IV antibiotics given as a single dose 30-60 min before incision. For colorectal surgery the agent must cover enteric gram-negatives and anaerobes (e.g., cefotetan/cefoxitin).
- Prolonged post-op courses (C, D) are therapy, used for contaminated or dirty wounds, not prophylaxis.
- Avoiding oral antibiotics (B) contradicts the listed oral neomycin + erythromycin regimen.
