    Abstract:
    The method of extracorporal connection of the swine spleen (ECSS) was used in the complex treatment of 32 patients with acute pancreatitis. Three patients died. It was established that ECSS effectively reduced hyperfermentemia and increased the phagocyte activity of blood leukocytes which was an important component of complex treatment of patients with acute destructive pancreatitis.
