Abstract: | For treatment of two consecutively opened into abdominal cavity perforating fistulas of small bowel in conditions of purulent peritonitis the author successfully used funnel-shaped obturators by Kolchenogov. In the same patients in later adhesive intestinal obstruction, which could not be eliminated by common surgical mode, continuous introduction of semifluid food and intestinal chyme collected from enterostoma (located above the obstruction) were carried out through enterostoma located above the obstruction. After resorption of inflammatory infiltrate bowel continuity was restored. Based on favourable results of treatment for perforation fistulas opening into free abdominal cavity, the author more than once in conditions of purulent peritonitis successfully applied sutureless suspending enterostomies on the catheter of Petzer, which principally is an analogue of the obturator by Kolchenogov, using the same method as in perforation fistulas. Inflamed bowel wall thus is well accreted with abdominal wall, and after withdrawal of catheter by Petzer the developed tubular bowel fistula is rapidly healing spontaneously. |
