摘　　要：To the Editor: Surgical site infection (SSI) after the neurosurgical operation, while uncommon, is a serious complication. The prevalence of SSI has been reported in a range between 0.5% and 8.0%,[1,2] and the risk for SSI was independently associated with the number of operations (>1), cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drainage, duration of operation more than 4 h, CSF leakage, venous sinus entry, American Society of Anesthesiologists score more than 2, gender, surgical purposes (non-traumatic), and other infections.[3] CSF leakage, lumbar, and extraventricular drainage were independent risk factors of SSI identified with regard to traumatic brain injury.
