Perioperative Selective Decontamination of the Digestive Tract (SDD) in Elective Colorectal Cancer Patients: a Multicenter Randomized Clinical Trial (SELECT)
The primary objectives of this randomized clinical trial are to evaluate if perioperative SDD can reduce clinical anastomotic leakage rate and its septic consequences as well as other infectious complications. By reduction of septic complications long-term oncological outcome might simultaneously improve.
