[MORPHOLOGICAL CRITERIA OF THE ENTERAL INSUFFICIENCE SEVERITY IN A DIFFUSE PERITONITIS FOR DETERMINATION OF A
Abstract:
The results of treatment of 87 patients for diffuse peritonitis (DP) were analyzed, in whom the enteral insufficiency (El) was estimated. The small intestine biopsies for morphological investigations were taken during its resection performance on the border between the pathologically changed and intact wall. Comparative morphometric analysis of destructive and inflammatory processes in a small intestine was conducted for establishment of morphological criteria for the EI prognosis in a DP. Morphological criteria of the EI severity were established for determination of a subsequent tactics for the patients' treatment and prognosis.
