[The diagnosis and surgical treatment of intestinal amebiasis].
Ninety-one patients with intestinal amebiasis (IA) were studied. All had been long suffering from IA due to the fact that it had not been diagnosed in time. Indications for emergency surgery were profuse hemorrhage, perforation of amebic ulcers, gangrene, and toxic dilatation of the large intestine. Planned operations were made in pseudopolyposis, strictures of the large intestine. Surgical treatment was performed along with specific therapy. Seven patients died due to late diagnosis, ineffective therapy and profound systemic and regional changes caused by these factors. It is necessary to differentiate ulcerative colitis, polyposis, and tumors of the large intestine with IA.
