Surgical site infections (SSIs) are one of the most common healthcare-associated problems. The paper reviews literature on the problem of SSI and gives its prevalence and causes. Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common pathogens of SSI. The spread of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains is an urgent public health problem. Understanding the epidemiology and population structure of MRSA is essential to control its spread and to develop therapeutic strategies and methods for the prevention of life-threatening infections, including SSI.
