title: [Anaerobes in children's acute abdomen].
abstract: Bacterial contamination of the abdominal cavity was studied in 30 children aged from 2.5 to 14 years with acute abdominal conditions. Anaerobes were detected in 63.9% of the children. It was established that on the initial stages of development of acute diseases in the abdomen the antagonism between aerobes and anaerobes was not present. 3 days and later after surgery the antagonism between aerobes and anaerobes arises which results in potentiation of the inflammatory process by either aerobes (25% of cases) or anaerobes (75% of cases). The complicated course of postoperative period in patients with acute abdomen more than in 83% of cases is due to anaerobes and in 50%--to aerobes.
