Abstract

Surgical site infections (SSIs) continue to be a significant concern in surgical practice. This comprehensive review explores the epidemiology, risk factors, complications, and management of SSIs. A deep understanding of these predisposing factors is crucial for healthcare providers to implement effective preventive measures and minimize the impact of SSIs on patient outcomes
