  • Title: [Tactics in the treatment of subdiaphragmatic abscesses].
    Author: Malkova SK.
    Journal: Vestn Khir Im I I Grek; 1989 Jun; 142(6):85-8. PubMed ID: 2815486.
    Abstract:
    The work generalizes an experience with treatment of 42 patients with subdiaphragmatic abscesses. Clinical picture and diagnostic methods are described. The roentgenological examination is thought to play the leading part. All the patients were operated on. Preference is given to the extraperitoneal access after Clairmont followed by drainage of the abscess cavity with a two-lumen tube. Lethality was 21.4%. Prophylactics must be directed to elimination of possible sources of subdiaphragmatic abscesses.
