[Antibacterial and detoxification therapy in acute appendicitis].

An analysis of clinical effectiveness of antibacterial therapy, photomodification of autoblood, hemosorption and their combinations was made in 395 patients with acute appendicitis. It was established that no antibacterial and desintoxicating therapy is required in catarrhal appendicitis. The prophylactic application of photomodification of autoblood is thought to be most expedient for phlegmonous appendicitis at the postoperative period, a combination of antibacterial therapy and photomodified autoblood--for gangrenous appendicitis, a combination of antibacterial therapy, photomodification of autoblood and hemosorption--for appendicular diffuse suppurative peritonitis.
