title: [Comparative clinico-morphological characteristics of peace-time anaerobic infections].
abstract: Altogether 26 cases of anaerobic infection (AI) of various etiology were analysed. Local tissue ischemia and operations on gastrointestinal organs in patients with secondary immunodeficit conditions are the factors facilitating the development of AI. The distinction is made between clostridial AI with a rapidly progressing gaseous gangrene and the non-clostridial AI with a slower course of a serous-purulent phlegmoma. Anaerobic myositis is observed in all forms of AI. Depending on the localisation of AI, anaerobic cellulitis and fasciitis are mentioned which occur mainly in non-clostridial AI. The treatment of AI and the mechanisms of death are discussed.
