[Surgical treatment of phlegmons of the maxillofacial region].
A method was developed for active surgical treatment of phlegmons of the maxillofacial region with the application of intraarterial regional drug therapy. The suggested method was used in operations on 75 patients. The results were compared with those in 65 patients who were treated by the traditional method--opening of the phlegmon. In 95.7% of patients in whom the active method of surgical treatment was applied, the postoperative wound healed by first intention. The treatment produced the best clinical and aesthetic effect. The period of incapacity of the patients reduced almost by half.
