- Abstract
In 54 patients with pyoinflammatory processes in the urogenital system, the efficacy of endolymphatic antibiotic therapy was investigated after surgical interventions into these organs along with administration of antibiotics just into the inguinal lymph node. To administer antibiotics, separation and drainage of the inguinal lymph node were conducted concurrently with surgical interventions in 26 patients for pyoinflammatory processes in the epididymis, prostate, and kidneys. In the other group (n-28), the inguinal lymph node was drained on days 4 to 5 of postoperative interventions due to the progression of an acute infectious inflammation in the affected organs and wounds. The efficacy of endolymphatic antibiotic therapy was evaluated by using clinical, laboratory, cytochemical, and immunological criteria. The drainage of inguinal lymph nodes in combination with aminoglycoside and cephalosporin antibiotics given in the postoperative period proved to be a safe and effective mode of treatment of pyoinflammatory processes in urogenital organs and wounds.
