Abstract
Practical application of the principles of immunobiology in the prevention and treatment of surgical infections has been largely neglected because of an insufficient understanding of the basic mechanisms involved. Three components of the host defense mechanism, phagocytic cells, opsonins, and the vascular response, are discussed to emphasize their relative roles in resistance to clinical infection. New observations promise to lead to improvements in the prevention and treatment of surgical infections.
