title: [The prevention of postoperative adhesive pleuritis in patients with lung cancer as one of the approaches in clinical rehabilitation].
abstract: The method of postoperative pleural adhesions prophylaxis, using polymethylsiloxane-400 (PMS-400), was proposed and introduced in clinical practice. The method was applied in 42 patients with pulmonary cancer after explorative thoracotomies conduction and in 75 patients after radical operations. Complete effect (absent pleural adhesions) was achieved in 23% of patients, partial--in 48%. Reduce of protein losses with the exudate, more rapid restoration of the external respiration function and ability to work of radically operated patients was promoted by PMS-400 application.
