V P Andriushchenko, and Ia O Zhovniruk, and S T Fedorenko

Prolonged decompression of the small intestine was used in the complex surgical treatment of 85 patients with acute ileus (67) and peritonitis (18). The main stage of the operation included liquidation of ileus and elimination of a source of peritonitis. Antegrade nasogastric intubation of the intestine was performed in 54 patients, via gastrostomy--in 3, retrograde intubation via cecostomy--in 15, via appendicostomy--in 4, via ileostomy--in 9. Performance of active transtubal sanation of the intestine by means of antiseptic solutions (53 cases) in combination with enterosorption (17) contributed to essential increase in the effectiveness of treatment.
