[Silver electrophoresis in the treatment of lactation mastitis].

The results of treatment of 476 patients with lactation mastitis (infiltrative, with abscess formation, phlegmonous) are discussed. The patients were treated by intra-tissue or intracavitary silver electrophoresis and by the commonly applied methods (control group). Treatment by silver electrophoresis alone and, in cases of an abscess cavity, with addition of drip-flow lavage with silver electrolyte improved the results considerably and reduced the term of in-patient treatment to one half as compared to the control group of patients.

Acute Disease↗

[Diagnosis and treatment of acute pancreatitis].

In diagnosis of acute pancreatitis of special importance is determination of the activity of transamidinase, phospholipase A, lipase, concentration of copper, calcium and triglycerides in blood serum as well as laparoscopy with biopsy and local thermometry of the pancreas. The dosage of 5-fluoruracil in the complex treatment of patients should be differentiated corresponding to the form of the disease: 3 mg/kg in the endomatous form, 5 mg/kg in the destructive form. The general lethality was 1.4%. In conservative treatment there were no lethal outcomes.

[Early relaparotomy].

An analysis of 14565 operations on organs of the abdominal cavity has shown that main causes of early relaparotomies were peritonites (47,4%), intestinal obstruction (33,3%), eventration of the abdominal organs (16,0%) and hemoperitoneum (3,3%). The highest lethality was after postoperative peritonitis (54,1%). For the recent 10 years the total lethality has become 31,6% lower due to better diagnosis and early relaparotomies.
