[Postoperative complications in patients with peritonitis].
One thousand three hundred and ten patients with peritonitis have undergone surgery: local limited peritonitis was in 230 patients, local unlimited--in 342, general--in 738 patients. After surgery suppuration of the wound was seen in 92 (7.1%) patients, phlegmons of the abdominal wall--in 16 (1.3%), progressive peritonitis--in 40 (3.1%), abscesses of abdominal cavity--in 13 (1.0%), eventration--in 19 (1.5%), adhesive intestinal obstruction--in 17 (1.3%). Laparoscopy was used for diagnosis of intraabdominal complications in 47 patients. This allowed to avoid unjustified laparotomies in 20 patients. Application of laparoscopy is limited by degree of bacterial contamination of peritoneal exudates. Early adhesive intestinal obstruction in 7 patients was treated with endoscopic procedure. Sonography is effective in diagnosis of intraabdominal complications, detection of site of safe puncture before postoperative laparoscopy and drainage of abscesses.
