The effect of some factors on the development of wound suppuration was studied in prospective examinations including 241 operations for destructive appendicitis. It was found that the presence of exudate, monoantibacterial prophylaxis, and the method of wound closure had no essential effect on the proportion of suppurations. The determinant factor is the surgeon's qualification, not his experience in general, but his experience in appendectomy in particular and individual technical traits.
