[Programmed sanation laparoscopy in treatment of peritonitis].

An analysis of experiences with endovideosurgical sanation of the abdominal cavity was analyzed in 168 patients with diffuse peritonitis which complicated the course of different acute diseases. Relaparoscopy might be programmed and "on request". Programmed laparoscopy allowed adequate sanation of the abdominal cavity in most cases. It was impossible in 11.3% of cases associated with a pronounced commissural process and uncared peritonitis with formed pyogenic abscesses in the abdominal cavity. The indications and contraindications to laparoscopic sanation of the abdominal cavity are described.
