Abstract
The objective of the article is to discuss diagnostic peculiarities of artificial pyoinflammatory diseases of soft tissues (APIDST).
Material and methods. We analyzed the clinical data of 302 military men.
Results. As compared to the non-artificial pyoinflammatory diseases of soft tissues of level 2-4 (PIDST of level 2-4), APIDST are characterized by the presence of local self-induced skin injuries that are mostly located on shins, the crepitation during palpation in the projection of the abnormal focus, and the signs of anaerobic infection (86.1%) and cellular-fascia-myositis (57.6%) during the surgical intervention in the lesion.
Conclusion. The revealed clinical features of pathology should be taken into account in the treatment.
