Abstract

78 patients aged from 14 to 73 years (57 men, 21 women) with complications after trauma of the liver were studied. Minimally invasive operations (puncture, drainage, puncture + drainage) were performed in 62 (79%) patients. 8 patients with small bilema received conservative treatment under visual follow-up. 8 patients with middle and big posttraumatic lesions not treated with minimally invasive surgery entered control group. Intracavitary prolonged proteolysis with immobilized proteinases (imosimase Literum, Novosibirsk) was used. Imosimase injection led to lysis of thick inflammation products, intensified sanation of focus. There were neither complications nor lethal outcomes. 2 (2.6%) patients were operated. Tissue sequestrum and bleeding were indications for surgery. Efficacy of minimally invasive treatment of posttraumatic lesion of the iver was 96%.
