The paper is based on clinical and experimental findings of one of the postoperative complications of purulent peritonitis, namely adhesion formation. The authors consider that impaired cytodynamic relationship in the focus of peritonitis concurrent with gastrointestinal paresis underlie the pathogenesis of the above-mentioned complication. In this connection, the authors propose a set of anti-adhesive measures, which involves prodigiosane cytomodulation and differential treatment of enteroparesis. Intestinal ultrasonic echocardiography was used for diagnostic purposes. Laparoscopy was employed in the surgical treatment of adhesive complications of peritonitis, which allowed relaparotomy to be eliminated or its traumaticity to be reduced to a great extent. There were no deaths and relapses of adhesive disease.
