[Cryosurgery in the treatment of suppurative diseases of the soft tissues in children].

The method of cryosurgical debridement in purulent diseases of the soft tissues in children is simple, effective, shortens the time for treatment by 23.4%, and has practically no contraindications. Cryosurgical debridement of the purulent focus accelerates rejection of the necrotic tissues, increases the flow of blood in the region of the wound, and stimulates the regeneration processes. The cryogenic effect reduces the resistance of the microflora to antibiotics without causing an essential influence on the content of microbes in the wound, and also has a favorable effect on the functional activity of the cells of the inflammation.
