Relaparotomy in the treatment of postoperative complications of abdominal surgery remains a complex problem in modern surgery.Purpose: to study the causes of relaparotomy after surgical operations on the abdominal organs, depending on the nature of the first surgical intervention.Material and Methods: A retrospective analysis of the performance of 74 relaparotomies after surgical treatment of abdominal pathology was performed. The first surgical intervention was performed because of acute cholecystitis (11 patients), choledocholithiasis (4), acute destructive appendicitis (8), perforated stomach or duodenal ulcers (8), strangulated hernia (5), adhesive intestinal obstruction (9), perforation of thin or colon (7), obstruction of the colon of tumor origin (19). Indications for relaparotomy were peritonitis, early adhesive intestinal obstruction, intraperitoneal bleeding.Conclusions: Complications associated with intra-abdominal infection — peritonitis, peritonitis due to insolvency of anastomotic sutures, is the most common cause of relaparotomy after operations on the abdominal organs, requires improvement of both technology of operations and antibacterial therapy. Relaparotomy is a life-saving surgery in the development of intra-abdominal complications, but it is associated with a greater risk of mortality. ER -
