title: [Comparative evaluation of the course of peritonitis caused by anaerobic non-Clostridia and aerobic bacteria].
abstract: Comparative estimation of clinical course and postoperative complications was done in 134 patients, operated on for diffuse and generalized peritonitis, caused by anaerobic nonclostridial microorganisms in 74 (55.2%) of them and aerobic--in 60 (44.8%). More severe course and enhanced frequency of the peritonitis complications occurrence, caused by anaerobic microorganisms, was noted. The studying of characteristic peculiarities of peritonitis permits to perform purposeful antibacterial therapy even when bacteriological identification of initiating microorganism is impossible.
