[The prevention of hemorrhagic and suppurative complications in the abdominoperineal extirpation of the rectum].

A special two-walled latex balloon on a draining tube was introduced into the perineal wound in the abdomino-perineal extirpation for locally spread tumor in 36 of 68 patients. This tamponing device allowed to make simultaneous hemostasis, irrigation of the wound with antiseptics and its valuable drainage. As a result, postoperative blood loss was greatly reduced (up to 80-100 ml) as well as the amount of suppurations (from 56.3 to 5.6%). The average postoperative stay at the hospital became shortened from 38 to 22 days.
