The article describes the features of the clinical presentation of acute purulent secondary mediastinitis in 8 patients undergoing inpatient treatment in maxillofacial surgery of the Osh Interregional Joint Clinical Hospital. An autopsy of the purulent-necrotic focus by external access and drainage of the wound was performed in 5 patients with anterior mediastinitis. The operation was performed according to our modified technique of opening the oral cavity floor and neck. Tonsillogenic phlegmons lead to posterior mediastinitis, surgical intervention is performed by the method of active drainage of the posterior mediastinum with hermetic closure of the neck wound using the Kanshin method. This method of surgical intervention was performed in 3 patients. Timely diagnosis and adequate modified drainage of acute purulent mediastinitis gave a positive result in the recovery of patients. All patients with anterior and posterior mediastinitis were discharged home in satisfactory condition.
