A comparative estimation of different methods of expanding the collapsed lung for staphylococcic pneumonia in children enabled the author to speak in favour of lung inflation by using an artificial occlusion of the bronchus with a peripheral fistula. This technic seems to be advantageous since a one-moment inclusion of the lung in the process of ventilation is found to contribute to prompt reduction oxygen deficiency of the organism, liquidation of the residual cavity and hemodynamic disturbances, and intoxication. The recovery of children is note din shorter terms. The time of patient's stay at the hospital is also shortened.
