title: [The surgical treatment of retroperitoneal phlegmons].
abstract: Based on the experience with treatment of 112 patients with retroperitoneal phlegmons of different etiology the authors distinguish and describe the diffuse and complicated forms of the disease. In treatment of phlegmons special importance is attached to the optimal surgical access. The article describes main principles of performing sanitation of the suppurative foci of the retroperitoneal space, variants of the aspiration-irrigation methods of treatment of the suppurative process. The authors believe that their original differentiated surgical method using different variants of the aspiration-irrigation drainage is effective in treatment of patients with retroperitoneal phlegmons. This method of treatment gave 23.2% lethality while after the traditional methods of treatment 90% of the patients died.
