title: [Results of noxythiolin use in acute peritonitis].
abstract: The authors present a series of 30 cases of acute supra- and inframesocolic peritonitis which, in addition to the treatment of their organic causes, benefitted from medical treatment by noxythioline, used as a peritoneal lavage, an irrigation with aspiration, or an instillation. A marked amelioration in the postoperative course was noted, particularly in those cases with infra-mesocolic peritonitis, with the absence of adhesions and suppurative collections on reintervention, and a rapid return to negativity of the positive bacteriological investigations performed systematically on the pe ritoneal fluid and on the drainage.
