[Changes in lymph microcirculation in appendicular peritonitis].

When studied in experiment (63 dogs) and in clinical settings (116 patients), microlymphatic channel in appendicular peritonitis (AP) was found impaired, while lymphatic drainage of large-molecular substances and metabolites coming from the abdominal cavity appeared activated. Methods of correction of AP-induced abnormalities in microlymphocirculation have been developed which imply three levels of the impact: microcirculation, affected organ, lymphatic system. The clinical trial of the methods proved their efficacy even in the most severe AP forms.
