[Possibility of predicting and preventing postoperative complications leading to relaparotomy].

The occurrence of relaparotomies is known to be 1,2% of operations on the abdomen organs. Pyo-inflammatory complications are responsible for more than half cases resulting in relaparotomies. Relaparotomies are divided into emergent and urgent, radical and palliative. A system for prognosis of complications and differential diagnosis of postoperative paresis of the gastro-intestinal tract and postoperative peritonitis is presented. Prophylactics of postoperative complications reduced lethality after relaparotomies from 79% to 56%.
