[value of and indications for noxythiolin in generalized peritonitis]. | the favourable experience of m. brown with noxythiolin in fecal peritonitis has prompted us, over the last seven years, to use this product in all forms of generalized peritonitis. this study involved 187 cases of generalized peritonitis : 102 males and 85 females, whose mean age was 53 years. noxythiolin was reserved for severe cases (after having deliberately decided not to perform a comparative control series), the severity being related to the advanced age of the patients, the delay in inter ... | 1978 | 35068 |
