Abstract
The author implanted 90 beads of Septopal into the osteomyelitic femur of a wet mother. The excretion of gentamycin in the mother's milk was continuously examined. The investigations revealed that the excretion of gentamycin with the mother's milk was so minimal that it did not signify any risk for the newborn baby.
