The incidence of hospital and posthospital wound complications was studied in 236 patients, residents of Zelonograd, who underwent operation for acute appendicitis. The material was collected at City Hospital No. 3 and four out-patient clinics of Zelenograd. The incidence of suppuration of the surgical wound in the hospital period was 13.1%, that of nonpurulent complications was 9.3%, and the total incidence of the wound complications was 22.4%. In the posthospital period additional suppuration of wounds was encountered in 23.3% of patients, nonsuppurative wound complications in 17.1%, and the total incidence of posthospital wound complications was 40.3%. The frequency of rehospitalization was 5.5%, the incidence of postoperative hernias was 0.9%. The economical loss due to the development of wound complications in 236 patients operated on for acute appendicitis came up to 56,120 roubles.
