Clinical Trial Summary

Surgical site infection in vascular surgery is a relatively common event with reported incidence as high as 43%. When considering the groin alone, the incidence is around 20% (30% when considering any wound complication). This complication may sometimes lead to heavier complication (leg amputation, longer hospital stay, high costs…) and affects the early postoperative quality of life of the patients.
