Microbiota in adult perianal abscess revealed by metagenomic next-generation sequencing
ABSTRACTThe microbiota of perianal abscesses is scarcely investigated. Identifying causative bacteria is essential to develop antibiotic therapy. However, culture-based methods and molecular diagnostics through 16S PCR technology are often hampered by the polymicrobial nature of perianal abscesses....
