[Coagulation of experimental gunshot wounds of the liver and spleen using plasma argon flow].
Experiments were conducted on 26 dogs to study the possibility of debridement of gunshot wounds of the liver and spleen with plasma argon flow. The method was found to be highly effective in providing final hemo- and cholestasis. The elaborated ++plasma coagulation method allows organ-preserving operations to be undertaken and may be recommended for use in field surgery. Analysis of morphological changes in the tissues showed that the wounds of the liver and spleen heal in the usual period of time without coarse cicatricial deformity of the tissues.
