A special study of the character and sensitivity of microbic flora of the abdominal cavity exudate in acute appendicitis was carried out upon 192 patients. The predominance of infection caused by colibacillus (44%) and correlation between the severity of the inflammatory process and the presence of the agent in the exudate were proved. The identification of the sensitivity of the cultured microbes to the most widely used antibiotics allows to recommend a combined use of the preparations of neomycin sulfate group and synthetic penicillins for the treatment of complicated appendicitis.
