It became known about a successful operation performed by Moscow surgeons.
Doctors were able to help a patient infected with flesh-eating bacteria.
The successful operation was reported on the Moscow Health Department Telegram channel.
As specified in the material, a 36-year-old man was admitted to IKB No. 2 and immediately sent to intensive care. The patient's condition was serious: his legs were inflamed, and a high body temperature was recorded.
Doctors found out that the patient's body was infected with two dangerous infections. The first is the cause of a disease called erysipelas, and the second is a microorganism typical for hot countries that affects soft tissues.
The danger of the man's condition was that his condition was getting worse with each passing minute. The patient had developed blood poisoning.
Doctors connected the patient to an artificial kidney machine and began artificial ventilation of the lungs.
The victim will need a skin graft in the future, but his condition is currently stable and his life is out of danger.
