[Videoendosurgical treatment of postinjection abscesses and phlegmons]
Abstract:
Method of treatment of postinjection abscesses and phlegmons was developed. This method includes endovideoscopy of purulent focus with creation of permanent liquid medium, visual revision of purulent cavity with evacuation of pus, controlled radical surgical treatment and introduction of perforated drainages for flowing drainage. Hand endoscopic instruments or special shaver were used for surgical necrectomy. Flowing-aspiration drainage of formed cavity was performed after surgery. This technique was used in 12 patients. It permitted to improve significantly results of treatment, reduce period of temporary disability and achieve good cosmetic effect.
