EFFICACY ESTIMATION OF THE COLON ANASTOMOSIS ZONE STRENGTHENING WITH THE SPONGE “TACHOCOMB”

EE “Grodno State Medical University” 1,
Grodno regional executive committee 2,
The Republic of Belarus

Objectives. To carry out a pathomorphological evaluation of the prevention effectiveness of the colonic anastomotic failure with the sponge “TachoComb”.
Methods. White mongrel male rats, weighing 250±50 g were used in the experiment. All animals were divided into four control and four experimental groups. The intersection of the colon distally to the ileocecal angle by 2 cm with the following “end to end” anastomosis with one-line intrasite serous-musculo-submucous suture was performed in the control group. The same manipulations were carried out in the experimental groups but the anastomosis zone was additionally covered with the sponge “TachoComb”. The animals were derived from the experiment on the 3, 7, 14, 30 days after the surgery.
Results. At the macroscopic analysis it has been established that application of the sponge “TachoComb” decreases the severity of anastomosis stenosis as well as the severity of inflammatory and adhesion processes. Microscopically, at strengthening of the intestinal suture zone with the sponge “TachoComb” smaller edema and leukocyte infiltration of the submucosal and muscle membranes, early onset of the epithelial proliferation have been revealed; there was more delicate connective tissue scar, and the remainder of the sponge “TachoComb” had the appearance of a thin plate encapsulated, intimately connected with the serous coat. At immunological investigation in the experimental groups lower leucocytosis has been established; at plating of washing-up from the anastomosis zone on agar the number of the revealed colony-forming units on the 3rd day was 14 times lower than in the groups without the use of the sponge “TachoComb”.
Conclusions. The sponge “TachoComb” is an effective preventive means against colon anastomosis failure.

COMBINED ATENSIONAL HERNIOPLASTY AT EXTERNAL INGUINAL HERNIAS

ME “City clinical emergency hospital”, Grodno 1,
EE “Grodno State Medical University” 2,
The Republic f Belarus

Objectives. To work out a new method of the combined atensional hernioplasty at inguinal hernias and to evaluate its immediate results.
Methods. A new atensional method of the inguinal canal plasty at the external abdominal hernias has been designed. The proposed method provides the inguinal canal posterior wall strengthening with the aponeurosis flap of the external oblique abdominal muscle and the anterior wall is formed from the meshy endoprosthesis. The method was applied in 25 patients. The control group included 25 patients who had been operated on using Bassini method. All patients were subjected to ultrasound scanning of both inguinal-scrotal areas the day before the operation and 5 days after it. During the whole postoperative period the intensiveness of the pain syndrome was being evaluated in the patients.
Results. It has been found out that the patients with inguinal hernias have hemodynamics disturbances in the testicle parenchyma. Decrease of the maximal systolic and diastolic speed of the blood flow has been registered. The most evident decrease of the blood flow was in the patients with the direct inguinal hernias. In the postoperative period the increase of the intratesticular blood flow speed was noted in the patients with the oblique and direct inguinal hernias. These parameters were significantly higher in the patients of the main group than the control one. At the same time in the control group of patients the resistance index increased considerably that testifies to the compression of the spermatic cord elements in deep inguinal ring forming. The designed atensional hernioplasty eliminates the present intratesticular hemodynamic disturbances. But the pain syndrome intensiveness is considerably higher at the atensional hernioplasty than at the Bassini tension plasty.
Conclusions. The combined atensional hernioplasty method permits to level the detected blood supply disturbances in the testicle, typical for the Bassini tension plasty and thus to improve the immediate treatment results.

DIAGNOSTICS AND SURGICAL TREATMENT OF PENETRATING DUODENAL ULCERS

Tajik Abu Ali Ibn Sino State Medical University 1,
City clinical emergency hospital of Dushanbe 2,
The Republic of Tajikistan

Objectives. Improvement of the immediate results of surgical treatment of penetrating duodenal ulcers (PDU).
Methods. The analysis of diagnostics and surgical treatment of 74 patients with PDU was carried out. There were 42 (56,7%) males and 32 (43,3%) females. Ulcer history in 45 (60,8%) patients continued more than 10 years, and in 29 (39,2%) it made up over 15 years. Most patients (57/77%) were repeatedly treated ineffectively by different specialists for the liver and kidneys diseases as well as for chronic pancreatitis and cholecystitis. In 42 observations PDU combined with other complications of the ulcerous disease. Thus, in 20 (47,6%) patients the combination of penetration with stenosis was noted; in 16 (38,1%) – the combination of penetration and bleeding; in 6 (14,3%) patients the duodenal ulcer penetration combined with ulcer perforation.
In 48 (64,8%) cases in patients with PDU, the duodenal passability with varying degrees of severity demanding surgical correction took place.
X-ray, endoscopic and ultrasound investigations, CT and endoscopic ultrasound sonography were carried out to diagnose PDU; and the acid-producing function of the stomach and dumping predisposition were studied
If indicated the contrast study of the duodenum, biliary tracts was performed; pancreatic enzyme activity and the level of bilirubin were determined.
Results. The research results show that PDU together with an atypical clinical course and presence of severe complications is often accompanied by chronic disturbances of duodenal passability (64,8%) of various kinds, by chronic pancreatitis (32,4%), and a high degree of acid production and the dumping predisposition.
Conclusions. Surgical tactics in case of PDU is not standard; that is why the primary gastric resection after Roux in the combination with the stem vagotomy and corrective interventions on the extrahepatic bile ducts under strict indications significantly improve the treatment immediate results of these severe patients.

CITOFLAVIN APPLICATION IN COMPLEX TREATMENT OF ACUTE PANCREATITIS

EE “Belarusian State Medical University” 1,
Military medical administration of the Ministry of defense 2, Minsk,
The Republic of Belarus

Objectives. To improve treatment results of acute pancreatitis, specifically to study the effect of citoflavin on the duration of the disease, blood parameters and possibility of complications.
Methods. The research was carried out in two groups of patients with acute pancreatitis, each group numbering 15 patients. In the experimental group the preparation citoflavin was intravenously administered in the volume of 10 ml diluted on 400 ml of 0,9% sodium chloride solution b.i.d. during 5-10 days. The control group of patients were obtaining a standard treatment. The effect of the medicament therapy was studied on the 5th day after the onset of the preparation’s application. Direct percutaneous oximetry to estimate the tissue respiration parameters in the anterior abdominal wall skin was used in the diagnostic complex.
Results. Use of antioxidants and antihypoxants is able to normalize the rates of respiratory activity, in particular, the level of oxidative status violations as well as to reduce the level of hypoxia in the pancreatic tissue and, consequently, in the skin of the anterior abdominal wall, which are registered by the direct oximetry.
Conclusions. Application of citoflavin in the treatment of acute pancreatitis contributes to the restoration of oxidative status, reduction of tissue hypoxia and reduces the duration of hospital stay by 2 times.

ULTRASOUND ANATOMICAL AND FUNCTIONAL CHARACTERISTICS OF PRETERMINAL SECTION OF THE MAIN SUPERFICIAL VEINS AT THE LOWER LIMBS VARICOSE VEINS

EE “Vitebsk State Medical University”,
The Republic of Belarus

Objectives. To determine, using the ultrasound investigation (USI) data, the basic anatomical and functional characteristics of the main superficial veins of the lower limbs in the preterminal section at the lower limbs varicose veins (LLVV) taking into consideration clinical forms and duration of the disease.
Methods. According to the ultrasound angioscanning data, the evaluation of the large and small subcutaneous veins in the preterminal sections of 82 patients with primary varicose veins of the lower limbs (clinical classes C2-C6 CEAP) and 30 volunteers with no signs of this pathology was carried out. The diameter of the veins and the functional state of the terminal valve apparatus were determined. The obtained data were analyzed taking into account the duration of the disease and a clinical class.
Results. Distinct anatomical and functional changes in the preterminal section of the large subcutaneous vein (LSV) at LLVV were identified in most patients. Exhibiting in the form of the lumen dilatation and the terminal valve apparatus failure, these changes have already been present in the early stages of the disease, including those with relatively mild form of the disease. Increase of the LSV diameter in the pretrial section is observed together with the progression of the disease severity and it is not typical in case of lengthening of the disease duration. Reduction of the tonic-elastic properties of the LSV at LLVV can be characterized by an increase in the elasticity index: ratio of the vein diameter, determined in orthostasis and clinostasis.
Conclusions. Detected characteristic signs of the anatomical and functional changes of the main superficial veins at the lower limbs varicose veins are revealed at the early terms of the disease progression including rather mild forms of the pathology and they are accompanied by capability reduction for LSV to maintain its own tonus.

CHANGES IN THE IMMUNE SYSTEM AT GENERALIZED PURULENT PERITONITIS AND POSSIBILITIES OF THEIR CORRECTION

SEE HPE “I.M.Sechenov First Moscow Medical University”,
The Russian Federation

Objectives. To study the state of immune globulin and interleukin profiles of the blood serum in patients with generalized purulent peritonitis and a possibilities of correction of their changes by intracutaneous injections of the preparation «Ronkoleukin».
Methods. The treatment analysis of 26 patients with generalized purulent peritonitis has been conducted. The influence of the intracutaneous injections of the preparation of recombinant interleukin-2 – “Ronkoleukin” on the level of immune globulins and interleukins in the blood serum has been studied.
Results. In patients with generalized purulent peritonitis in the postoperative period the expressed changes in the immune system are observed, characterizing by the disimmunoglobulinemia phenomenon – the decrease in the level of IgM, IgG and the general IgA on the background of the content increase of the secretory IgA in blood serum. From the 1 day of the postoperative period the unidirectional content increase of both the pro-inflammatory (Il-1β, Il-6, Il-8), and anti-inflammatory interleukins (Il-10) has been established on the background of the decrease in the level of regulatory mediators (Il-2, Il-4).
On the background of the conventional treatment the expressed pathological changes from the immune system remained on the 5 day of the postoperative period testifying to the continuing inflammatory process. At the same time in the main group of patients in whom the preparation “Ronkoleukin” was injected intracutaneously as the immune-correcting therapy during the indicated terms the studied parameters were approaching to normal levels or didn’t differ from them.
Conclusions. The obtained data indicate the positive impact of the suggested scheme of immune-corrective therapy on immune globulin and interleukin profiles of the blood in a complex treatment of patients with generalized purulent peritonitis that is possible to regard as a productive immunotropic effect.
Thus, the intracutaneous injections of the preparation “Ronkoleukin” has been firstly proposed while treating generalized purulent peritonitis, which being rather simple in usage permits to reduce significantly the daily volume and duration of the preparation administration.

Keywords: generalized purulent peritonitis, “Ronkoleukin”, interleukins, immune globulins.

MICROBIOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF TREATMENT OF PURULENT SKIN DISEASES AND SUBCUTANEOUS TISSUE WITH CRYOSURGICAL METHOD

SBEE HPE “Kirov State Medical Academy” 1,
Polyclinic ¹1 of the department hospital on the station Kirov of JSC “Russian railways” 2,
The Russian Federation

Objectives. To study impact of the single-stage cryosurgical treatment of the walls of purulent cavities on the microflora in a surgical wound at treatment of purulent skin diseases and subcutaneous tissue using combined cryosurgical methods in a polyclinic.
Methods. The comparative analysis of the results of microflora investigation of the postoperative wounds using plating on standard nutrient media was carried out at cryosurgical and conventional methods of treatment of purulent skin diseases and subcutaneous tissue of various localizations in 19 and 20 patients correspondently. The age varied from 18 up to 55 years; the duration of the disease – from 5 up to 15 days. The operations were carried out using the simplest sets for cryodestruction with the replaceable metal caps, cotton and gauze swabs on the instrument, intended for contact manipulations. Cryodestruction was carried out once, the exposure time was 30-45 seconds, depending on the area of pathological focus in order to ensure complete freezing of purulent cavity walls to a depth of 1-2 mm. Investigation of microflora in the wound with traditional methods and cryosurgical treatment was performed twice: immediately after opening the abscess, and one day after the operation.
Results. When using a single-stage cryosurgical treatment of the abscess cavity, significant reduction in the number of viable infectious agents in the surgical wound was obtained as well as a full recovery and reducing average terms of disability up to 7,3 days (in the traditional methods of treatment – 11 days) a good cosmetic effect.
Conclusions. Single-stage cryodestruction of the purulent cavity walls reduces significantly the content of bacterial cells in the wound; it is pathogenetically justified and effective additional component of the combined surgical treatment that can be recommended for widespread use in the surgical room.

OPTIMIZATION OF TREATMENT DIAGNOSING AND TACTICS OF THE ABDOMINAL CAVITY POSTOPERATIVE ABSCESSES

The Republican specialized surgical center named after academician V. Vakhidov1, Tashkent
Ministry of Health of the Republic of Karakalpakstan2
Karakalpakstan affiliate of the Republican scientific center of emergent medical aid3, Nukus
The Republic of Uzbekistan

Objectives. To improve treatment results of the postoperative abdominal abscesses by optimizing early diagnosing and treatment strategy.
Methods. The analysis of the repeated interventions in 88 patients with the abdominal cavity abscesses after the initial emergency and planned operations carried out in various hospitals of the Republic of Uzbekistan was carried out.
Results. The performed analysis has shown that in the structure of all intraabdominal complications, the limited purulent formations after emergency surgery make up 4,0-12,7% and 9,9-15,2% after planned operations. Depending on the severity of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), mortality rate after the repeated interventions for these complications amounts to 25,6-33,3% at average SIRS and 63,2-66,7% at severe SIRS. Taking into account the results of research the tactical algorithm to select the optimum treatment strategy of the postoperative abdominal abscesses has been’ proposed.
Conclusions. The best option for the standardization of protocols of this category of patients is the use of integrated prognostic scales, summation results of which let adequately to assess the risk of a repeated surgical intervention and thus optimize the choice of the treatment tactics. The practical value of the waked out algorithm permits to determine the risk of relaparotomy and, accordingly, to optimize the surgical tactics in relation to urgency and the choice of an adequate amount of the alleged interference, which will significantly improve the results of surgical treatment for these patients.

OPERATIVE TREATMENT OF GASTROESOPHAGEAL REFLUX DISEASE IN CHILDREN

FSBE “Nizhny Novgorod scientific research institute of pediatric gastroenterology”1,
SBEE HPE “Nizhny Novgorod State Medical Academy”2
The Russian Federation

Objectives. To improve the surgical treatment results of the gastroesophageal reflux disease in children.
Methods. Gastroesophageal junction insufficiency is one of the causes of the gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). To eliminate the gastroesophageal reflux we suggest our own modification of the anti-reflux surgery – the modified purse-string suture on the gastroesophageal junction. 7 patients have been operated on according to this technique. Fibrogastroduodenoscopy, X-ray, pH-metry, ultrasound of the abdominal cavity organs have been carried out in all operated patients before and after the surgery.
Results. The proposed technique of the surgical treatment of the gastroesophageal reflux disease eliminates the gastroesophageal junction insufficiency as well as it yields good functional and clinical results in the nearest and distant postoperative periods that is backed by clinical-laboratory data.
Conclusions. Anti-reflux surgery, esophagofundoplication with the modified purse-string suture, is effective; it eliminates pathological reflux in all patients and yields good functional results.

SURGICAL AID AT HOSPITALIZATION OF LARGE NUMBER OF PATIENTS WITH EXPLOSIVE LESIONS

EE “ Belarusian State Medical University” 1,
Military medical administration of the Ministry of defense 2., Minsk,
The Republic of Belarus

Objectives. To determine the most spread operative interventions in the patients with explosive lesions.
Methods. The research is based on the treatment analysis of 195 victims of the explosion at the metro station “Oktyabrskaya” who were hospitalized to the medical establishments of Minsk in April, 11, 2011.
Results. Operative interventions in victims as the result of the given terror act have been studied. The main types of surgeries on various anatomical areas have been analyzed; technical peculiarities and priorities of their application have been determined. The most frequent performance of the primary surgical wound treatment has been revealed and it sets conditions for the necessity to possess the technique of its carrying out. The importance of active diagnostic search in victims with explosive lesions for early revealing life-threatening outcomes of a trauma has been demonstrated. At the same time it is required to apply all possible laboratory and instrumental methods including invasive ones (celiocentesis, laparoscopy). The correlation between the type character and the operative intervention volume at the bone fractures and type of lesion, severity of patient’s state and availability of medical specialists and corresponding equipment has been viewed.
Conclusions. The victims with the explosive lesions require large amounts of operative interventions including the specialized aid and at the same time it is necessary to follow the “damage control” principles. Each surgeon must know pathogenesis and treatment peculiarities of gunshot and mine-explosive injuries as well as to posses the primary surgical wound treatment technique.

COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF DIAGNOSTIC VALUE OF NEUROSONOGRAPHY MODERN METHODS AT EXTENSIONAL BRAIN TUMORS

ME “Gomel Regional Clinical Hospital” 1, Gomel,
SE “Republican Scientific Clinical Center of Neurology and Neurosurgery” 2, Minsk,
The Republic of Belarus

Objectives. To evaluate predictors of quality of intraoperative ultrasound scanning at the focal brain pathology and to perform the comparative analysis with modern methods of neuroimaging.
Methods. 116 patients with the extensional lesions of the brain (tumors, intracerebral hematomas, abscesses) were included in the research. All patients were subjected to the intraoperative ultrasound scanning through the post-trepanation defect. In the preoperative period computer tomography (CT) of the brain was performed in 79 cases (68,1%), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) – in 23 (19,8%) patients. In 10 (8,6%) cases, CT and MRI were carried out for the differential diagnosis of focal pathology. In order to determine the cause of the intracranial hypertension, in 4 (3,5%) patients diagnostic trepanation was done, followed by brain parenchyma neurosonography (NSG).
In order to determine the diagnostic value of MRI, CT and NSG, the data of the pathomorphological changes obtained during the surgery and, in cases of the brain tumors, the histopathological examination of the material obtained at the removal were used as a "gold standard".
Results. Studying of the neurosonography operative characteristics proves high informational content of the given method in the diagnostics of the brain focal pathology (validity 98%). The comparative estimation of the diagnostic value of three alternative methods of neuroimaging has shown that intraoperative ultrasound scanning has high prognostic qualities (all AUROC values exceed 0,9) and can be compared with MRI in its significance (ð>0,050 no matter what nosological form it is) and CT at intracerebral hematomas (ð=0,389). What concerns CT at tumors and brain abscesses, the importance of the intraoperative ultrasound scanning is significantly superior to native CT ð<0,001 and ð=0,001, correspondently).
Conclusions. Predictive value of intraoperative ultrasound scanning in the diagnosis of pathological extensive tumors of the brain is comparable with MRI and CT at intracerebral hematomas, but surpasses CT in cases of the brain tumors and abscesses.

NEW APPROACHES TO TREATMENT OF INTRAPLEURAL COMPLICATIONS IN ESOPHAGEAL CANCER SURGERY

SE “N.N.Alexandrov Republican Scientific Practical Center of Oncology and Radiology”, Minsk
The Republic of Belarus

Objectives. To work out and introduce in the clinical practice a new treatment method of the intrapleural complications caused by anastomosis sutures failure and/or esophagotransplant necrosis at surgical treatment of the esophageal cancer.
Methods. The paper presents the surgical treatment experience of 59 patients on the basis of the thoracic department of N.N.Alexandrov Republican scientific practical center of oncology and radiology, in whom, after surgical treatment for esophageal cancer, intrapleural complications developed: esophageal anastomotic sutures failure was diagnosed in 17 and esophagotransplant necrosis – in 42 patients.
Results. The conservative principle was used in 22 patients (the 1 group) with saving of the esophagogastric anastomosis; and 37 patients (the 2 group) were treated by active surgical tactics based on the disconnecting surgery with the resection of the proximal segment of gastric stem with the esophageal anastomotic segment and esophagostomy, gastro- or jejunostomy formation. In 6 patients from the 2 group, treatment of intrapleural complications was carried out using a new method by anastomotic esophageal segment and proximal gastric area apparatus resection within healthy tissue boundaries with the leaving of the resected stump in the posterior mediastinum, the formation of the cervical end esophagostomy in the left supraclavicular area and the suspended probe jejunostomy in the left mesogaster.
Conclusions. It was established that the optimal treatment method of esophagotransplant necrosis and/or esophageal anastomosis sutures failure was the active surgical tactics aimed “to disconnect” the alimentary tract continuity, allowing to reduce postoperative mortality and to provide the potential long-term survival rates for this group of patients by performing the reconstructive surgery.

SE “N.N.Alexandrov Republican scientific practical center of oncology and radiology”, Minsk
The Republic of Belarus

Objectives. To evaluate the surgical method efficacy while treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) extending to the intrapericardial sections of the pulmonary veins and/or the left atrium (LA).
Methods. The result analysis of the surgical treatment of 55 patients with locally advanced NSCLC requiring LA resection was carried out in this research. The average age made up 58,4 years (from 38 up to 77 years), median was 59 years. The process was staged as T3N1M0 in 2 cases, as T3N2M0 – in 4 cases, T4N0M0 – in 5 cases, T4N1M0 – in 18 cases, T4N2M0 – in 26 cases. According to the histological structure of the tumor, the patients were divided as follows: the squamous cell carcinoma – 48 (87,3%), adenocarcinoma – (7,3%), the adenosquamous carcinoma – 2, the undifferentiated large cell carcinoma – 1. LA myocardium lesion was noted in 21 cases (38,2%), in the intrapericardial sections of the pulmonary veins – in 34 cases (61,8%). The LA resection was carried out with the help of the linear suturing apparatus in 43 cases, in 2 cases – with vascular clamp. In 10 patients LA resection and its plasty with xenopericardium was done under the conditions of the artificial blood circulation (ABC).
Results. Incidence of the postoperative complications made up 32,7%, postoperative lethality – 10,9%. One-year, three-year and five-year survival rates (n=55) made up 60,9%, 43,3% and 25,1% correspondently, survival rate median – 18,3 months. Among the patients (n=49) with the tumor, classified as pT4N0-2M0, – 62,4%, 33,4% and 27,8% correspondently, survival rate median – 18,3 months. In patients with metastatic lesions of the mediastinal lymph nodes (pT4N2M0, n = 26) five-year survival rate was 29,2%, survival rate median – 18,9 months without mediastinal lymph nodes lesions T4N0-N1 (n = 22) – 21,2% and 16,0 months correspondently (p=0,55).
Conclusions. Surgical method of treatment in patients with NSCLC extending to the heart structures can ensure high long-term survival rate at acceptable frequency parameters of the postoperative complications and postoperative lethality.

QUALITY CONTROL OF SYNCHRONIZATION OF THE ARTIFICIAL LUNG VENTILATION AND PATIENT’S SPONTANEOUS BREATHING USING ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAPHIC MONITORING

ME “Mogilev regional hospital”
The Republic of Belarus

Objectives. To determinate the effectiveness of electroencephalogram-based control (EEG) according to Bispectral (BIS-index®) as the criterion of the adequate drug synchronization during the prolonged artificial lung ventilation (ALV).
Methods. 78 episodes of artificial lung ventilation were under analysis (ALV) in 12 patients with the syndrome of acute lung injury (ALI) who underwent ALV longer than 48 hours.
The registration of ALV regimen and parameters as well as the parameters of the respiration monitoring, the analysis data of the arterial and venous blood gases and acid-base state (ABS), the method of introduction and doses of the sedative preparations and analgesics was performed.
To assess the state of the central nervous system, bispectral index parameters (BIS-index) were registered. The evaluation of the patients’ state with Ramsey sedation scale was also carried out. All the analyzed episodes of ALV were divided into 4 groups: in the 1 group the psychotropic drugs were not administered, the 2 group – episodes of ALV with the use of narcotic analgesics, the 3 group – only sedatives preparations were used and the 4 group – both narcotic analgesics and sedatives were simultaneously used.
Results. It was established that higher values of BIS-index, an average of 89,1±10,6 were recorded in the 1 group of episodes of ALV. In the second group BIS-index decreased more significantly and amounted to an average of 75,0±16,1. In the third and fourth groups BIS-index was significantly different from the values in the first two groups; average values were 37,2±11,6 and 43,2±18,1, respectively. The reliable inverse correlation between the readings of BIS – monitoring and evaluation on Ramsey score scale was revealed. A clear direct correlation between the numerical values of the BIS-index and the volume of spontaneous breathing in the total volume of the minute lung ventilation was established. It was found out in the episodes of ALV demanding deep sedation, the significantly more severe disturbance of oxygenation and changes in the mechanical properties of the lung were registered in patients.
Conclusions. BIS – index is an objective criterion for effective drug synchronization during the prolonged ALV.

CONTROLLED SUPERVISED BY THE PATIENT IN THE EARLY POSTOPERATIVE PERIOD AT GYNECOLOGIC PATIENTS

SBEE HPE “Russian National Research Medical University named after N.I.Pirogov”
The Russian Federation

Objectives. To carry out the efficiency estimation of patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) in the early postoperative period in patients after gynecological surgery.
Methods. Depending on the performed treatment the patients were divided into three groups. To relieve postoperative pain the method of patient-controlled analgesia with the infusion of morphine bolus doses was applied in all groups. While using the PCA method in 32 patients TsOG-1 inhibitor ketorol (group A) was additionally applied; in 36 patients – TsOG-2 inhibitor parecoxib (group B) was used. The other 29 patients (control group) did not receive the preparations of nonsteroid anti-inflammatory agents. The visual analogue scale (VAS) of pain has been widely used and studied as a method of postoperative pain measurement in each of the allocated groups.
Results. The conducted research permits to state that the additional use of ketorol and parecoxib combined with PCA procedure with morphine provided an authentic decrease of the used morphine within the first 6 hours of PCA and in general for all circadian period of this technique application. At the same time difference of the used morphine quantity within singled out time intervals wasn’t statistically significant (ð>0,05) between groups A and B. It means that ability of ketorol and parecoxib to reduce morphine requirements in patients during PCA procedure turns out to be almost identical.
Conclusions. Identical efficacy of ketorol and parecoxib in providing of total daily morphine dosage reduction during patient-controlled application has been confirmed.

ÑOMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF MATERIALS USED FOR CELLS IMMUNOISOLATION AT TRANSPLANTATION

EE “Belarusian State Medical University”, Minsk,
The Republic of Belarus

The primary aim of the cell encapsulation technology is the “addressed” delivery of the synthesized molecules to the target organ. The principle of the cell immunoisolation is the backgrounds of this method – prior to transplantation donor cells are set in the semi-permeable membrane to protect them against their interaction with the host’s immune system. This membrane is selectively permeable to transport the nutrients and the products of the cellular secretion but relatively impermeable to larger molecules and cells of the hosts’ immune system. Besides the most immunoisolating devices have the internal matrix which contributes to the compact immobilization of cells inside the capsule. The proper choice of the synthetic materials and methods of their processing influences significantly the functioning efficacy of the semi-permeable membrane and matrix components. Up-to-date immunoisolating devices permit to reconstruct natural three-dimensional tissue environment thus maintaining functional activity and viability of the encapsulated cells. This review summarizes recent developments in the field of materials production used to make devices for cell encapsulation.

OPERATIVE CORRECTION VARIANTS OF LYMPH OUTFLOW AT THE LOWER LIMBS LYMPHEDEMA

SBEE HPE “Samara State Medical University”
The Russian Federation

To improve the results of surgical treatment of patients with the lower limbs lymphatic edemas at their early stages one suggested applying various types of lymph-venous anastomosis. The step-by-step technique of lymphadenovenous and lymphangiovenous anastomosis application is described in the article; indications and contraindications to their performance are established; possible complications and mistakes as well as methods of their prevention are showed.
The results of lymphadenovenous and lymphangiovenous anastomoses application while treating the patients with the lower limbs lymphatic edemas of different degrees of severity are suggested. 69 patients were operated on. The 1-2 degrees of lymphedema were diagnosed in 17 of them; the 3-4 degrees – in 52 operated patients. In 18 cases the lymphadenovenous anastomosis according to “side by side” type was applied; in 45 cases anastomosis according to “end to side” type was applied; in 5 episodes lymphangiovenous anastomoses were formed.
Application of lymphadenovenous and lymphangiovenous anastomoses permits to improve the nearest and distant treatment results of patients with the lower limbs lymphedema and can be recommended at lymphatic edemas of various etiology.

We presented a clinical case of a 67-year-old man suffering from the primary multiple metachronous cancer: the colorectal cancer T2N0M0 (2001 year), prostate cancer T4N0M0 (2010 year). In 2008, 7 years after the extirpation of the rectum, the patient was performed the one-stage bilateral lung resection: the lower left lobectomy, video- assisted thoracoscopic resection of the right lower lobe for metastases of colorectal cancer. Clinical case demonstrates the effectiveness of one - stage surgeries in the complex treatment of such patients and has value as the observation of rarely occurred primary multiple metachronous cancer of the rectum and prostate.

MUCOCELE OF THE APPENDIX

National scientific practical center of the urgent medicine 1,

Republican hospital of medical sanatorium and restorative association 3,
The Republic of Moldova

Mucocele of the appendix is the obstructive dilatation of the appendix with the gelatinous masses accumulation in the lumen. Mucocele of the appendix is rather rare and composes 0,3-0,7% of all appendectomies and 8% of all tumors of the appendix. Taking into account the given pathology rareness the authors have described their own clinical observation of mucocele of the appendix in a 40-year-old patient who had been operated on for acute appendicitis. Taking into consideration that the appendix base and the cecum cupola were not involved in the pathological process, a standard appendectomy was performed. There was mucinous cystadenoma of the appendix at the histological investigation of the preparation. The postoperative period was rather even. The wound healed by first intention.
There were no complaints at the control examination 12 months afterwards; the ultrasound data and colonoscopy revealed no pathology. The level of tumormarkers of carcinoembryonic antigen, ÑÀ-19-9 and ÑÀ-125 was normal. The authors described in details the questions concerning pathogenesis and possible complications of mucocele of the appendix, the peculiarities of the radiological diagnostics as well as the choice of the operative intervention volume in various cases.

FOLLOWING “DAMAGE CONTROL” PRINCIPLES AT SEVERE LIMB INJURIES TREATMENT

Medical center “Ziv”, Safed,
Israel

High-energy injuries cause deep and extensive damages to soft tissue, to a certain extent restricting possibilities of the restorative treatment and range of medical procedures. Less traumatic methods of external fixation of fractures based on the “Damage control” principles permitting to stabilize the damaged segment of the limb with minimal additional trauma avoiding introducing foreign bodies in the damage zone are more preferable in such cases. Besides, one-side apparatuses of the external fixation practically don’t restrict surgical access to a damaged limb and don’t prevent further skin defects closure. Simplicity of this method and relatively short duration of the operation are significant for patients with multiple traumas and in cases of mass hospitalization.
The main indications for the primary stabilization with the tubular apparatuses are
– open diaphyseal and open intra-and periarticular fractures with significant damages and soft tissue defects, especially due to high-energy traumatic factors (such as Gustilo-Andersen 2-3 fractures);
– severe general condition of the victim after multiple or combined traumas requiring minimally traumatic, bloodless and rapid stabilization of the limb fractures;
– unstable fractures of the pelvis in hemodynamically unstable patients.
Further final reposition and stable fixation in the Ilizarov apparatus promotes early mobilization, including the full axial load, stimulating bone fusion and healing of the damaged soft tissues.
Minimally invasive staged treatment in the apparatuses of external fixation based on the “Damage control” principles permits to save severe-damaged limbs and to contribute to their functional recovery, in cases of extensive damage and defects of osseous and soft tissues, as well as in patients in critical condition.
