[The combined treatment of patients with progressive phlegmons of the maxillofacial area].

Based on assessment of the severity of endogenous intoxication, the authors developed a complex differentiated protocol for the treatment of patients with phlegmons of the face and neck, including electrochemical detoxication and intravenous laser exposure of the blood. Such treatment appreciably decreases endogenous intoxication, normalizes homeostasis, more rapidly arrests local pyoinflammatory process, and thus cuts down the duration of treatment and improves its outcomes.
