title: [Method of ultrasound treatment of purulent focus in abscesses and phlegmons in maxillofacial region].
abstract: The authors propose a method for ultrasound treatment of a purulent focus in abscesses and phlegmons in the maxillofacial region. They use the properties of the ultrasound for that purpose, namely: stimulation of both local and general reactivity of organism, alteration of the immunologic properties of microbes and cells at the granulation swelling, destruction of microorganisms. After a broad excision of the purulent focus, a fixed tube drainage is inserted, through which the focal tissues are perfused by antiseptic and proteolytic solutions. At the same time the skin surface over the inflammatory region is treated with ultrasound. The application of that method results in reduction of the size of the inflammatory infiltration, reduction of purulence time and its definite arrest. The favourable therapeutic effect of the method is a good reason to be recommended for the surgical practice.
