Abstract
Chronic encapsulated peritonitis with different names (peritonitis chronica fibrosa incapsulata, peritonitis adhaesiva circumscripta chronica, polyserositis, Zuckergussperitoneum) has been studied particularly hard recently. Such peritonitis was discussed in Russian surgical literature at the 2nd Congress of Russian Surgeons, but only in recent years has the disease become more frequently mentioned in the press and its pathogenesis is being studied more closely. However, even today, due to the relative rarity of observations and the lack of detailed examination of each case, the cause of the disease and its pathological and anatomical substrate remain unclear.
