title: [Sepsis in surgery: pathogenesis, new therapeutic approaches].
abstract: Sepsis and septic shock are phenomena with a characteristic clinical picture and etiologically related to injury. Chains of events from injury (e.g., infection) through activation of immunological system to multiple organ failure are responsible for sepsis. Neutralization of endotoxins, TNF, interleukins and so on, can improve the treatment of sepsis in the future.
