The results of surgical treatment of 125 patients with perforative pyloroduodenal ulcer and wide-spread peritonitis were studied. Postoperative mortality was 3.2%. The method of cleansing and drainage of abdominal cavity was suggested, which allowed to avert the beginning of such severe complications as abscess and progressive peritonitis.
