title: [Laparostomy in the treatment of severe intra-abdominal infections].
abstract: The objective of the work was to evaluate the results of comprehensive treatment of protracted primary and secondary intraabdominal infection. Retrospective analysis of a group of patients in 1994-1998 using laparostomy, peritoneal lavage, thorough repeated cleansing of the peritoneal cavity, microbiological monitoring with subsequent aimed antibiosis and comprehensive intensive care provide evidence of the rescue of almost 40% liminally curable patients. The results justify the use of comprehensive therapeutic procedures in late stages of serious peritonitis.
