title: [Laparoscopic surgery and postoperative adhesions in children].
abstract: Data of 568 patients, aged from 3 weeks to 14 years, with acute adhesive bowel obstruction, treated during 1981--2007 yy. are analyzed. Most often previous laparotomy was performed on account of appendicitis, predominately complicated with peritonitis--in 52,2% of patients. Obstruction, caused by intestinal invagination was observed in 19,4%, malformation--9,3%, tumor--2,3%, other--1,7%. The treatment results of appendicular peritonitis and intestinal invagination are studied. Two comparative groups of patients with appendicular peritonitis, 100 children each, were treated laparoscopically and traditionally. The laparoscopic method allows to stop pain and endotoxicosis earlier, faster gastrointestinal function recovery, decrease of complication in the laparoscopical group rates and hospital-stay period on 30,8%. 100 children with intestinal invagination were operated laparoscopically and 50 patients were experienced a traditional <<open>> operation. There were no complications, but 2 cases of postoperative adhesive obstruction in the <<open>> group. The average hospital stay was 2,5 times shortened in the laparoscopical group.
