Key Words	Bacterial translocation; Major gastrointestinal surgery; Postoperative sepsis; Intestinal permeability; Microbiota
Core Tip	Increased intestinal permeability can potentially induce intestinal flora dysbiosis. Bacterial translocation, attributed to intestinal barrier impairment, may lead to systematic infection in the postoperative period. The definitive correlation between translocation and postoperative sepsis is yet to be proven, but the latter is an emerging issue for patients undergoing major gastrointestinal surgeries.
