PREVENTION OF POSTOPERATIVE RELAPSES OF TRAUMATIC PURULENT OSTEOMYELITIS WITH THE USE OF BENZOIN OINTMENT AND LYMPHOTROPIC ANTIBIOTIC IMMUNOTHERAPY

Abstract

The work is based on a comprehensive analysis of data on 84 victims with
chronic traumatic purulent osteomyelitis. In the control group (51.2%), local treatment
with conventional drugs and traditional methods of antibiotic therapy were performed.
In the main group (47.8%), in order to prepare soft tissues for surgery and in the
postoperative period, a hydrophilic benzoin ointment was used in the first phase of the
wound process, as well as lymphotropic administration of antibiotics and
immunomodulators in the postoperative period. When studying the immediate results,
the total proportion of purulent wounds and fistulas in the main group was 19.5%, in
the control group – 30.2%. In a detailed analysis of the treatment results , it was found
that the use of reconstructive and reconstructive operations in combination with the use
of the proposed system of pre- and postoperative complex treatment, the frequency of
recurrence of the process is 4.4 times less than in the control group (7.1% and 1.6%,
respectively), while when performing conventional sequestral necrectomy, this
indicator in the compared There was no statistically significant difference between the
groups (42.9% and 47.6%, respectively).
