title: [Comparative study of the management of abscesses of the abdominal wall after cesarean section].
abstract: Abdominal wall wound dehiscences, more frequently those involving skin and subcutaneous tissue, are a common surgical complication in Obstetrics and Gynecology. A prospective, longitudinal study was done in 65 patients presenting with wound abscess. The evolution of the wound was compared using the following methods a) Bandage, b) Bandage with 30% iron subcarbonate pomade, c) Silk, d) Silk with 30% iron subcarbonate pomade. Eighty five percent of the patients, with silk used, were completely recovered in less than 10 days; comparing this option with the others used in this study, there were significant statistical differences.
