title: [Temporary closure of the abdominal cavity--surgical technique].
abstract: Temporary closure of the abdominal cavity can be achieved by different means. The disadvantage of original devices (Ethzip, Velcro) is as a rule their high price. The author presents his own technique of temporary closure of the abdominal cavity which meets all contemporary demands laid on this method, while it uses materials of Czech origin the price of which is incomparably lower than that of foreign devices. He uses as a basis worldwide findings as well as his own long-standing experience with this method in the treatment of severe forms of haemorrhagic-necrotizing pancreatitis and diffuse peritonitis of varying etiology. The method was used at the Department of Surgery of the Faculty Hospital in Plzen since 1990 with favourable results in more than one hundred patients.
