The experience of operative treatment in 14 cases of acute abdomen complicated by malignant hemopathy was reported. Primary diseases consisted of AL, NHL, MM, MH and MDS-RA, 13 cases of them were at progressing stage. The acute abdominal conditions included acute appendicitis, acute pancreatitis, acute cholecystitis, peritonitis secondary to intestinal perforation, intestinal obstruction, primary peritonitis and ileocecal syndrome. The type of acute abdomen was related with primary desease and chemotherapy. 8 cases were operated and 2 of them died of complications after operation. Biopsy of excised tissue showed tumor cells in 2 cases. The rate of correllation between preoper active and postoperative diagnosis was 62.5%. These findings suggest that malignant infiltration in the viscera, duration of abdominal pain before operation and the change of blood picture are the major factors for determining operative indication and the postoperative prognosis.
