Abstrakt
In view of the severe course seen in the presence of any suppurated pancreatic necrosis, it was felt to be of value to treat two patients by the adjuvant use of a new antiseptic tauroline, administered locally and, where appropriate, systemically. After surgical excision of pancreatic and peripancreatic necrotic tissue, the authors prefer to avoid active suction drainage of the residual pocket, replacing it by continuous and prolonged post-operative irrigation-lavage, together with the sequential, twice-daily use of a solution of 2 p. 100 tauroline. In view of the presence of a Gram negative septicemia (organisms identical to those of the suppurated area), the same substance was given by intravenous infusion in a 0.5 p. 100 solution, this being the only systemic, anti-infectious therapy. The effectiveness, good tolerance and originality of this new substance, active against Gram negative, Gram positive, aerobic and anaerobic organisms as well as yeast, have led the authors to immediately report their initial experience with its use.
