Multimodality therapy of children with appendicular peritonitis applying low-frequency ultrasound

Abstract

The paper analyses the results of 153 surgeries on acute appendicitis complicated by appendicular peritonitis in children aged 1 to 14 years old. In several cases, the authors have applied their own method of sanitating the intestinal cavity with the low-frequency ultrasound and found out that the low-frequency ultrasound used to sanitate the intestinal cavity in case of the appendicular peritonitis speeded up the recovery period and decreased the number of post-operative complications.
