title: [Rethoracotomies and repeat operations on the lungs].
abstract: The article generalizes materials of 148 rethoracotomies. Main complications are described. Grounds are given for the use of perfusion through the xenospleen at the early postoperative period in order to liquidate the coagulated haemothorax mainly after pulmonectomy. An original method of determination of the coefficient of relative viscosity of the exudate on the absorbing base is described. The method allows the objective control of infectivity of the pleural exudate to be performed. The clinical use of different methods of detoxication in the preoperative period is substantiated: UVI of blood, hemocarbosorption and xenohemosorption, which allowed to reduce lethality after rethoracotomies and reoperations on the lungs.
