Abstract

The article presents clinical case report of treatment of a severe anaerobic, nonclostridialphlegmon of the abdominal wall as a complication after a typically performed appendectomy without draining the abdominal cavity is given. A feature of the treatment in this clinical case is the use of cryodebridement with liquid nitrogen on the purulent cavity of the wound, which predetermined the rapid subsidence of the symptoms of purulent inflammation and created a condition for early and complete closure of the wound by secondary sutures. This case is one of the examples of effective application of local cryoexposure in the direction of purulent surgery of the skin and subcutaneous tissue, which is still poorly understood for this method.
