The article describes the clinical experience of treatment of the victim using minimally invasive methods such as angiography and embolization. The applied treatment tactics made it possible to preserve the damaged parenchymal organ of the abdominal cavity and avoid performing other more traumatic surgical interventions (laparoscopy, laparotomy).
The article presents two cases of intestinal perforation by a foreign body rarely being the cause for “acute abdomen”. In both cases the disease resembled acute appendicitis. The introduction of endovideosurgical technologies into surgical practice contributes to early diagnostics of a gut wall perforation by a foreign body and allows performing only low-invasive surgical treatment.
The article presents a clinical case of 2-stage treatment of an elderly patient with spontaneous rupture of the esophagus. Exclusion the esophagus in the first stage of treatment with the use of minimally invasive technologies (endoscopy, laparoscopy, drainage of the pleural cavity) allowed to minimize surgical trauma and create conditions for the recovery of the patient, relief of mediastinitis, sepsis and restore the natural passage of food through the digestive tube during the second stage of treatment. The presented clinical case demonstrates the feasibility of the multistage approach using minimally invasive technology in the treatment of eldery patients with spontaneous rupture of the esophagus and severe sepsis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
