[Treatment of acute horseshoe-shaped paraproctitis].
Radical operations are considered to be expedient in the treatment of acute shoe-shaped periproctitis. On the one side the necrotic tissues are dissected together with the primary purulent passage. On the other side the purulent cavity is opened by a semilunar incision. Operations were made in 19 patients with acute shoe-shaped periproctitis. The function of the anal sphincter was preserved.
