[Disorders and correction of lung functions in acute destructive cholecystitis].

On the day of operation for acute destructive cholecystitis functions of external ventilation prove to be disturbed due to deterioration of pulmonary blood flow (2-6 times) and ventilation (1.3-3 times). The degree of these disturbances are in direct dependence on the degree of the inflammatory process in gallbladder and time of preoperative observation. At the same terms after emergency cholecystectomy the lung functions were reestablished considerably quicker and was more valuable than after operations on urgent indications. Inclusion of adrenoblocking agents into conservative treatment of acute cholecystitis before and after operation facilitates more effective and quicker recovery of lung functions.
