[Diagnosis of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis in liver cirrhosis].

Working out of the new methodical approaches of diagnostics and treatment of spontaneous bacteriological peritonitis (SBP) in the patients with cirrhosis of the liver (CL). The ascitic liquid (AL) was examined in 35 patients with CL by the method of gas chromatography--mass-spectrometry (GCH-MS). The results of quantitative and qualitative examination of the chemical components--markers of potential infection (aerobe and anaerobe) with the GCH-MS method testify to the infected AL. The proposed method demonstrates the high precision revealing of infected abdominal cavity in the patients with CL and proposes the proper treatment according to the varieties of microorganisms.
