Aim: It’s one of the most important problems for general surgeons to decide on what kind of operation should me applied to patients with intraabdominal infection, specially with concomitant abdominal hypertension. Lately, closing techniques by using prosthetic meshes in order to retain abdominal tension and to control sepsis, for patients with abdominal sepsis and hypertension have become very popular. With this studty, we aimed to present our experiences about the technique “Bogota bag” that we used for some of our patients who are treated for intraabdominal sepsis, which is one of the open abdomen or transient closing methods. Material ve Method: File data of 7 patients who had been treated in Selçuk University Meram Medicine Faculty General Surgery Clinics between March 2000- December 2003 for intraabdominal infection secondary peritonitis and for whom the technique Bogota Bag had been used in a period during surgical treatment, were examined retrospectively. Findings: 4 of the cases were male 57.14% and 3 of them were female 42.86% . Mean ages were 51.25 4371 for men and 60.66 for women. The reasons for intraabdominal infection were late disseminated peritonitis after gastrointestinal perforation at 3 cases and postoperative peritonitis for 4 cases. Result: Lots of surgical methods may be used together and consecutively for the control of intraabdominal infections at patients with primary peritonitis causing intraabdominal sepsis. Considering that the intraabdominal pressure will increase when the abdomen is closed, the technique Bogota bag which is a temporary closing method may be a good alternative
