[Treatment of purulent postoperative wounds with collagen and immobilised gentamycin].
The results of treatment of purulent postoperative wounds in 184 patients are discussed. All the patients were operated on urgently. Various destructive diseases of the abdominal cavity organs, complicated with peritonitis, were the indication for the surgery. The abdominal cavity was drained through laparatomic wound. The wounds became suppurative with subsequent diastasis of the wound edges. Microbiologic, cytologic and clinical tests were used to estimate effectiveness of the treatment with the use of collagen sponge with immobilised gentamycin. The method has provided fastening of the healing process and shortening of in-hospital stay.
