| Description | Therapy of infectious diseases of skin and soft tissue is a daily part of clinical practice at surgical departments. Despite a wide spectrum of antimicrobial therapeuticals, it still remains a significant morbidity and mortality, especially in the serious cases connected with necrotizing infection. Occurrence of the multiresistant variant of the pathogen is an increasing problem leading to the effort to find other effective therapeutic possibilities. A phage therapy appears to be one of the promising variants with a potential to become a part of common clinical practice. |
