CLINICAL FEATURES IN ACUTE SURGICAL ABDOMINAL DISEASE IN PATIENTS WITH DESTRUCTIVE PULMONARY TUBERCULOSIS
Abstract
The 2005 to 2012 case histories of patients with acute nonspecific abdominal diseases from the Primorye Territorial Tuberculosis Dispensary were retrospectively analyzed. Clinical, laboratory, and radiological diagnostic studies were of no informative value and required that a surgeon should make invasive studies. The patients were divided into 4 groups who underwent laparotomy, laparocentesis, laparoscopy, and laparolift for the diagnosis of acute abdominal diseases. Among the invasive diagnostic techniques, gas-free laparoscopy proved to be optimal and informative in patients with unstable hemodynamics and respiratory failure.
