Adhesiogenesis of residual liver cavities after echinococcectomy

Abstract

This paper presents findings of the retrospective analysis of 58 cases of surgical treatment in patients with hepatic hydatidosis. In all patients after open or laparoscopic echinococcectomy drainage of the residual cavities was performed. We developed and applied our own technique of obliteration of the residual cavities in all patients. Complete obliteration of the residual cavity occurred in 10–15 days after the surgery. The postoperative bed-day was 12.5. All patients recovered and were discharged in satisfactory condition.
