This study, designed as a multicenter retrospective study, aims to assess the current practices of perioperative antibiotic use in endoscopic endonasal surgery (EES) cases and identify the optimal antibiotic regimen for reducing the risk of surgical site infections (SSI). Specifically, it will examine the relationship between the type of antibiotics, duration of administration, timing of administration, and postoperative infection rates at each participating institution. Through this analysis, the study seeks to provide evidence that contributes to the standardization of perioperative antibiotic treatment in clinical practice.

Explanatory
Not applicable
The presence or absence of SSI within 30 days from the date of surgery will be evaluated as an outcome measure. However, information on infections that occur beyond 31 days and resemble SSI will also be collected and presented as a reference item.
Observational
| 18 | years-old | <= |
| 100 | years-old | >= |
Male and Female
Individuals who meet all of the following criteria:
Underwent EES for a skull base lesion during the study period (October 1, 2022, to September 30, 2024; two years).
Adults (18 years or older).
Have follow-up data for at least 30 days from the date of surgery.
Individuals who meet any of the following criteria will be excluded:
Underwent surgery primarily for the closure of a CSF leak.
Underwent transnasal surgery for the treatment of an infection (e.g., abscess, fungal infection).
Minors (under 18 years old).
Underwent combined transnasal and craniotomy procedures.
Severe liver dysfunction (Child-Pugh classification B or C).
Patients with preoperative conditions or medication history that may result in immunosuppression, including:
HIV infection
Use of immunosuppressive drugs:
Corticosteroids (e.g., prednisolone)*
Calcineurin inhibitors (e.g., cyclosporine, tacrolimus)
Antimetabolites (e.g., mycophenolate mofetil, mizoribine, azathioprine)
mTOR inhibitors (e.g., everolimus)
Infliximab or similar agents
Pregnant individuals
*The use of corticosteroids for replacement therapy in cases of anterior pituitary insufficiency or for perioperative management concerns will not be considered an exclusion criterion.
