METHOD OF URETERAL-INTESTINAL ANASTOMOSIS FORMATION

FSBE HPE "Ulyanovsk State University",
The Institute of Medicine, Ecology and Physical Culture¹, Ulyanovsk,
SME "Lipetsk Regional Oncology Center"², Lipetsk,
The Russian Federatio

Objectives. To develop a method for creating ureteral-intestinal anastomosis which lets to provide the impermeability, sufficient valve function of anastomosis, to prevent reflux, to reduce the early and late postoperative complications.
Methods. The study of the results of anastomosis formation on Chinchilla rabbits (n=12) of both sexes had been conducted within 14 days. In the 1st series of experiments on 6 rabbits the ureteral-intestinal anastomosis was performed by the Bricker method. During the 2nd series on 6 rabbits anastomosis was performed by the proposed method. The assessment of valve function of the ureteral-intestinal anastomosis was performed on the isolated preparation of the ureteral-intestinal anastomosis formed by the proposed method and by the Bricker method on the 7th and 14th days after the surgery as well as the removal of rabbits from the experiment.
Results. It was established that in the 2nd series of the experiment intraoperatively after the formation of the ureteral-intestinal anastomosis, bleeding and excretion of urine in the area of the anastomosis were not observed. The pressure at which reflux occurred in the isolated preparation of the ureteral-intestinal anastomosis formed by the Bricker method, made up 58,3±12,2 cm of water column; and by the proposed method it was 75,6±5,4 cm of water column. After 7 days in the macroscopic and microscopic examination the anastomosis failure was revealed in the 1st series of the experiment (n=2), on the 7th and 14th days in the anastomosis area the inflammatory process with the swelling and infiltration of the surrounding tissues, deformation, sequestration of ligatures was obserrved in other animals in this series.
In the 2nd series of the experiment, anastomosis failure was not observed; 7 days afterwards a moderate hyperemia, fibrin formation, lack of deformation in the anastomosis area were determined, 14 days later – the lack of evidence of inflammation, epithelialization of the anastomosis area were detected. The granulation tissue developed in the muscle membrane.
Conclusion. The proposed method of forming an anastomosis creates invaginative ureteral-intestinal anastomosis with sufficient integrity and more effective valve function.

PATHOGENETIC SUBSTANTIATION OF USING BIOACTIVE SORPTION GEL FORMULATIONS FOR TREATMENT OF PYOGENIC WOUNDS

FSAE HE "Belgorod National Research University"1,
Municipal City Hospital ¹1 2 The Russian Federation

Objectives. To assess dynamics of the wound healing process in white Wistar rats using bioactive sorption-gel formulations.
Methods. The experimental animals were divided into five groups in according to the performed treatment. In the first group 0,9% NaCl was used for wound cleansing. In the second group the water extract of Thymus serpylum was used. In the third group the complex treatment scheme was applied: in the first stage of wound healing the rats were treated by the powder of purified clay containing montmorillonite (MCC); in the second stage – by gel of MCC. In the fourth group the complex scheme of dressing was the following: in the first phase – a dry form of MCC modified by the extract of Thymus serpylum (phytomineral sorbent), in the second phase – gel form of phytomineral sorbent (PMS). In the fifth group the wound dressings were carried with gel form of PMS, throughout the whole period of wound healing process.
Results. The performed studies established that in rats of the III, IV and V groups wound healing was more intensive and treatment terms were 7 days less. In animals of the III and IV groups scrap from healthy tissues got off easily, granulation and epithelialization of the wound surface developed. In the group of rats, where dressings were carried out with the gel PMS throughout the period, less noticeable scar formed. By the 13th days it should be noted that the surface of the wound area in rats of groups III and IV significantly decreased by 73,2 and 81,7%, respectively, indicating the active regeneration of tissues.
Conclusion. The performed research has proved the effectiveness of the application of pyoinflammatory in the complex treatment wounds with PMS: in the first phase – with a dry form, in second phase – with the gel form of MCC.

THE IMMEDIATE RESULTS OF SIMULTANEOUS SURGICAL CORRECTION OF COMPLEX HEART DISEASE WITH CONCOMITANT ATRIAL FIBRILLATION

FSBE "Scientific Center of Cardiovascular Surgery named after A.N. Bakulev"
Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, Moscow,
The Russian Federation

Objectives. To assess the results of simultaneous surgical correction of the complex surgical pathology of the heart and atrial fibrillation.
Methods. A retrospective analysis for the period 2009-2014 of the patients with simultaneous surgical correction of the atrial fibrillation (AF) and complex heart disease was carried out. The study enrolled 37 patients, aging 52 (49; 58), 51% of males, 49% of females. All patients with chronic heart failure were classified in NYHA class III-IV. The duration of AF composed 36 (24; 60) months. AF types were the following: a persistent one in 75,5%, a paroxysmal one – in 24,5%. The calculated risks comprised: EuroScore II – 4,1 (2,8; 5,9), the risk of in-hospital mortality and total mortality risk by Ambler – 5,5 (3; 7,3) and 8 (6; 9), respectively.
Results. The average number of simultaneous procedures on the heart performed per patient was 4 (4, 4), min – 3, max – 5. In 100% cases the aortic and mitral valve correction, and maze IIIB procedure were performed simultaneously. Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) was carried out in 19% of cases and the tricuspid valve repair was performed in 67%. The total duration of operations amounted 6,68±1,53 hours, time of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) – 212 (183; 238) min., aortic clamp – 139 (120; 157) min. Hospital mortality rate was 5,4%. In the early incisional period the main non-lethal complications were: acute heart failure, respiratory and renal insufficiency, and transient neurological disorders.
Conclusion. The literature review of such complicated types of cardiac surgical operations is quite meager that associated with the severity of patients and refusal of surgical correction. However, a qualified team of specialists possessing a highly professional approach to this category of patients is able to ensure the success of the surgical treatment of complex heart disease combined with simultaneous performing of 4 or more procedures. In the suggested series of observations, the hospital mortality correlated with the calculated one (5,4%) which is a quite good result in this patient category.

TO THE QUESTION OF INTERCOSTAL NERVE INJURY PREVENTION AT THE POSTERIOR SEPARATION HERNIOPLASTY OF UMBILICAL HERNIAS

SBEE HPE “Voronezh State Medical University named after N.N. Burdenko”.
The Russian Federation

Objectives. To study the specific features of the topography of the intercostal nerves in the celiac area of the anterior abdominal wall.
Methods. The floating corpses (n=88) of both sexes without any pathology of the anterior abdominal wall were studied. There were 45% of male corpses (mean age – 53,8±11,9 years) and 55% – females (51,9±13,2 years).
The topographic anatomical dissection of the intercostal nerves in the celiac area of the anterior abdominal wall with the determination of the level of their penetration into the rectus abdominis in relation to the inferior edge of the costal arch and the external edge of the rectus abdominis muscle had been performed on each corpse.
Results. In this study the intercostal nerves (1-4 pairs) had been identified in the celiac area of the anterior abdominal wall. Most often 2 pairs of intercostal nerves (71%) met in females, while no statistically significant differences were found in males. Intercostal nerves penetrated into the rectus abdominis often via their external edges (52%), more rarely – via posterior surface (39%). In males the variant of the lateral penetration of the intercostal nerves in the rectus abdominis was more common (60%), while in females no statistically significant differences were found. To reduce the risk of intraoperative trauma of the intercostal nerves, the levels of their penetration into the depth of the rectus abdominis muscle had been determined. It had been found out that the distance from the inferior edge of the costal arch on the site of the penetration of rectus abdominis by intercostal nerves was reliably higher in females. The distance from the external edge of the rectus abdominis muscle on the site of the penetration of the muscle thickness by intercostal nerves was significantly greater in males.
Conclusion. The obtained data can be used to predict the topography of the intercostal nerves in the umbilical hernias plasty.

Dnepropetrovsk
Ukraine

Objectives. To study the validity of radiological methods of diagnosis in assessment of inflammation activity and fibrous transformation degree of the pancreas at chronic pancreatitis.
Methods. The comparison analysis of results of the radiological research methods (CT scan, ultrasound, sonoelastography and sonoelastometry in Shear Wave Elastography mode) with those of morphological assessment of the pancreatic biopsies obtained during surgical interventions due to the complications of chronic pancreatitis had been carried out in 98 patients. Age of patients varied from 26 up to 76, there were 77 (78,6%) males and 21 (21,4%) females.
Results. According to ROC analysis of the non-invasive assessment of inflammation activity and the evaluation of the fibrotic transformation degree of the pancreas, the low sensitivity and specificity of the quantitative and qualitative indices according to ultrasound and computed tomography scan had been established.The high sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of the sonoelastography method with sonoelastometry of the pancreas at chronic pancreatitis in determining rigidity of the anatomical parts of the pancreas in the evaluation of the fibrotic transformation degree of the pancreas according to the data of the conducted ROC-analysis made up in the pancreatic head 83,3%, 88,9% and 85,7% (AUC=0,843 (95% confidence interval (CI) 0,619-0,963), in the pancreas 81,8%, 76,9% and 79,2% (AUC=0,748 (95% CI 0,531-0,901) and it had a high diagnostics value; in the pancreatic tail - 66,7%, 75,0% and 64,3% (AUC=0,604 (95% CI 0,317-0,846), that possessed low diagnostics value.
High prognostic valuation of inflammation activity in the head of pancreas at the early (73,3%, 80,0%, 68,0% (AUÑ=0,727 (95% CI 0,513-0,884) and later (87,5% and 100,0%, 88,2% (AUC=0,972 (95% CI 0,759-1,000) degrees of pancreatic fibrosis at chronic pancreatitis had been determined.
Conclusion. Thus, indices of sonoelastography with sonoelastometry of the pancreas in assessing of fibrotic transformation degree and pancreatic inflammation activity allowed to establish the high informative value of the research methods unlike thoses of the computed tomography scan and ultrasound at chronic pancreatitis.

POSSIBILITIES OF TIBIAL REVASCULARIZATION OSTEOTREPANATION IN TREATMENT OF PATIENTS WITH PYO-NECROTIC COMPLICATIONS OF DIABETIC FOOT SYNDROME

EE "Vitebsk State Medical University",
The Republic of Belarus

Objectives. To study the efficacy of the tibial revascularization osteotrepanation (ROT) in the complex treatment of patients with pyo-necrotic complications of diabetic foot syndrome (DFS).
Methods. The studies were carried out in patients (n=109) with a dry gangrene of the fingers. The research enrolled the patients with neuroischemic form of the disease, the inability of the direct revascularization of the limb and the absence of indications to the high limb amputation in emergency situations. The first group (n=42) consisted of patients underwent to ROT repeatedly within 6-12 months after the first operation. As for the second group (n=67) of the patients ROT was performed only once. In each group two subgroups were allocated depending on the preoperative indicators of acid-base balance (pO2, lactate concentration) in the venous blood. The first one included the patients with pO2 in the range of 30-60 mmHg and lactate concentration not higher than 2 mmoles / L.
The second group enrolled the patients in whom pO2 was outside the specified range, and lactate concentration was more than 2 mmol / L. The criterion of assess the efficacy was the number of high amputations of the lower limb.
Results. During the first two follow up years there were no reliable differences in incidence of amputations between the groups. 36 months after the treatment onset the number of high amputations performed in the first subgroup of the first group was significantly lower than in the same subgroup of the second group (p=0,016). The incidence of amputations in the second sub-groups was not differed (P>0,05).
Conclusion. Revascularization osteotrepanation of the tibia, carried out repeatedly within 6-12 months after the first operation, provides a more durable revascularization effect and improves the results of treatment in patients with pyo-necrotic complications of diabetic foot syndrome, in whom pO2 of the venous blood is in the range of 30-60 mm Hg and lactate concentration is not more than 2 mmol/L.

EFFICIENCY OF LAYER DERMATOLIPECTOMY (SHAVE THERAPY) IN COMPLEX TREATMENT OF PATIENTS WITH LOWER LIMBS VENOUS TROPHIC ULCERS

SBEE HPE "Samara State Medical University",
The Russian Federation

Objectives. To assess the efficacy of layer dermatolipectomy application in the complex treatment of patients with persistent refractory venous trophic ulcers.
Methods. The examination and combined treatment of patients C6 class (n=71) was carried out. The mean age was 62,3±7,1 yrs. Women dominated – 45 (63,4%). Duration of the venous ulcers composed 6,8±1,7 yrs. Phlebectomy (n=71) (crossectomy, short stripping on the hip, SEPS) was performed combined with a free autodermaplasty by the split perforated flap. Layer dermatolipectomy was carried out in the 1st group of patients prior to autodermoplasty. In the 2nd group of patients (n=36) shave therapy was not carried out. Statistical differences between the age groups (t=0,2; p=0,831), sex (χ2=0,008; p=0,993), nosology (χ2=0,004; p=0,995), anamnesis (t=0,14; p=0,891), duration (t=0,21; p=0,829) and the area (t=0,18; p=0,863) of the trophic venous ulcers were not recorded. Evaluation of long-term treatment results was carried out in the period from 1 to 12 months.
Results. Time of complete epithelialization of ulcers in the group I made up 31,4±4,7 days, in the group II - 49,4±7,2 days (t=2,09; p=0,044). In 27 (77,1%) patients in the group I a complete engraftment of autodermotransplant had occurred; in group II - in 7 (19,4%) patients (χ2=23,674; p=0.001). Epithelization of the partial graft necrosis (24,3±4,8 cm2) took place in 8 (22.9%) patients in group I at 42,4±4,5 days. In group II, partial necrosis (67,1±10,5 cm2) was in 29 (80,6%) cases, the lack of complete epithelialization was observed in 3 (8,3%) patients.
A statistically significant reduction in the malleolar volume of the affected leg in the 1st group (t±3,6; p±0,001) and in the 2nd group (t=2,2; p=0,035) was registered, more pronounced in the 1st group in 6 and 12 months (p<0,05).
Conclusion. Layer dermatolipectomy with autodermaplasty by the perforated flap and surgical correction of venous hemodynamic insufficiency is considered to be an effective treatment of chronic diseases of veins (C6 class). Shave therapy is the treatment of choice for persistent refractory venous trophic ulcers and lipodermatosclerosis of the lower limbs.

ULTRASOUND DIAGNOSIS AFTER ANTERIOR SUBCUTANEOUS TRANSPOSITION OF THE ULNAR NERVE

Kharkov Medical Academy of Postgraduate Education1,
Kharkov Regional Traumatological Hospital2,
Kharkov, Ukraine

Objectives. To confirm the absence of dislocation of the ulnar nerve after its anterior subcutaneous transposition.
Methods. Diagnostic ultrasonographic examination of the ulnar nerve after subcutaneous anterior transposition in patients (n=9) had been carried out. There were 4 females and 5 males in the studied group; the average age was 42 years (ranging 25-59 years). The transposition of the ulnar nerve was performed on one right and on eight left upper extremities: in 8 patients with cubital tunnel syndrome and in 1 with old injury of the ulnar nerve. Ultrasonography was performed in all patients after 16 months in average (from 6 to 25) after surgery.
For prevention of dislocation of the ulnar nerve after its subcutane­ous transposition the method of fixation of the ulnar nerve had been worked out. The longitudinal undulating incision with length of 12-14 cm was performed. The top of one of the “waves” section should be turned laterally and placed 1,5-2 cm laterally from the apex of the medial epicondyle of the humerus. After transposition of the nerve in the forearm fascia in the longitudinal direction C-shaped incision that form and location coincides with the peak of the “waves” of skin incision was carried out. In the area of the top “waves” 3-4 vertical mattress skin-subcutaneous-fascial sutures had been imposed.
Diagnostic ultrasonographic examination was performed on an ultrasound diagnostic apparatus Philips HD7 (Austria) with the using of a L 12-3 MHz linear array transducer.
Results. The analysis of transverse and longitudinal ultrasound scannings in all operated patients (n=9) in extension, flexion and upon attempt of forcible displacement of the ulnar nerve the skin-subcutaneous-fascial block scar reliably held the ulnar nerve in the anterior subcutaneous transposition.
Conclusion. Ultrasonographic examination permits to confirm objectively the absence of dislocation of the ulnar nerve after anterior subcutaneous transposition.

THE LONG-TERM RESULTS OF SURGICAL TREATMENT OF GASTROESOPHAGEAL CANCER

EE "Belorusian State Medical University"1,
ME "Minsk City Clinical Oncology Dispansery"2,
The Republic of Belarus

Objectives. To study the long-term results of surgical treatment of gastroesophageal cancer in the dependent on the main prognostic factors of the disease, tumor resectability and extent of lymph node dissection.
Methods. The analysis of surgical treatment results was carried out in 329 patients with gastroesophageal cancer who underwent transpleural resection of the stomach and esophagus: gastrectomy with the resection of the lower third of the esophagus by Garlock (n=155); proximal resection of the stomach with the lower third of the esophagus by Garlock (n=96); proximal resection of the stomach with subtotal resection of the esophagus by Lewis (n=78).
Results. Postoperative mortality composed 5,2%: after gastrectomy by Garlock – 3,9%, after proximal gastrectomy by Garlock – 5,2%, after Lewis’s surgery – 7,7%. Overall five-year survival rate was 26.2%. 43.6% of patients without metastatic lymph nodes and 18,4% with nodal metastases had survived this period of observation. Survival of patients didn’t depend of the number of metastatic lymph nodes (N1, N2, N3). Five-year survival after radical resection of the stomach and the esophagus amounted 29,1%, after palliative – 9,4%. After the combined surgeries with the resection of adjacent organs in comparison with those after conventional surgery. After a combiened operations with resection of adjacent organs compared with those afte conventional surgery the survived 5 years (12,5% and 31,3%), respectively. The analysis of treatment results in patients depending on the morphological type of the gastroesophageal tumor didn’t reveal statistically reliable differences in the patients’ survival.
Conclusion. The survival rate of patients after surgical treatment of gastroesophageal cancer remains low. The prognosis depends mainly on the extent of the tumor process. Survival of patients without nodal metastases (all types of operations) is two-fold higher than in those with the regional lymphogenous metastasis. The number of affected groups of lymph nodes doesn’t influence the overall and recurrence-free survival rate. The combined and palliative resections can provide the 5-year relative survival rate only at the level of 10-15%.

EFFICIENCY OF VACUUM THERAPY IN TREATMENT OF POSTOPERATIVE STERNOMEDIASTINITIS: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW AND META-ANALYSIS

EE "Belarusian State Medical University"
The Republic of Belarus

Objectives. Efficacy estimation of vacuum-assisted closure therapy (VAC) in comparison with conventional methods in the treatment of deep sternal infection following cardiothoracic surgery by carrying out systematic review and meta-analysis of study publications devoted to the given problem.
Methods. A systematic search was conducted (PubMed, elibrary.ru, hand search) for studies dedicated to the comparative analysis of vacuum-assisted closure therapy efficacy and a conventional treatment of deep sternal infection (1997-2015 yrs). The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) for assessing the quality of methodology of the study was used. Mortality was considered the primary outcome, secondary outcome – duration of therapy and disease recurrences. The results were presented as odds ratios (ORs) 95% of confidence interval (CI). Statistical heterogeneity was assessed using Q-test and I2-test.
Results. For the analysis 26 non-randomized, retrospective, cohort studies published from 1997 to September 2015, including the results of treatment of postoperative sternal infections in 2616 patients were selected. It was found in the case of using the VAC-therapy the lethality was significantly lower than in conventional treatment (2233 patients; OR=0,40; 95% CI 0,28-0,57; ð<0,0001; I2=0%). VAC-therapy use was associated with fewer recurrences (1322 patients; OR=0,27; 95% CI 0,16-0,45; ð<0,0001; I2 =23%). A significant reduction of the therapy duration had been revealed (1577 patients; mean difference -5,86 days; 95% CI -9,40: -1,08; ð=0,02) with high heterogeneity between studies (I2 =87%).
Conclusion. The systematic review and meta-analysis suggest that VAC- therapy might be more effective than a conventional one in treatment of deep sternal infections. However, randomized studies are required to confirm the potential value of this type of treatment.

REPAIR OF HERNIA SAC AT COMPLEX INGUINAL HERNIAS

State Medical University, Semey
The Republic of Kazakhstan

Objectives. To assess the effectiveness of hernia sac repair by the worked out method for recurrent inguinal, inguinal and scrotal hernias.
Methods. The surgical treatment analysis of patients (n=77) with recurrent inguinal and inguinal-scrotal hernias was carried out. 26 patients made up the main group (MG). The hernial sac is closely adhered to his spermatic cord; the developed technique of the hernia sac repair was applied. The clinical comparison (CCI) included 51 patients. In the GCS the hernia sac was treated in a conventional manner with suturing, ligation and excision in the neck area. To evaluate the surgical treatment effectiveness of patients of MG and CCI the following criteria were used: the processing time of the hernia sac, the incidence of postoperative complications and recurrences. The results were evaluated after 1-3 years of follow-up.
Results. The mean duration of hernia sac repair in patients with recurrent and complex inguinal hernias requiring to relegate the hernia sac from the elements of the spermatic cord was 23,8±3,9 min in the CCI and – 19,3±2,6 min – in MG. The difference between the duration of hernia repair in the two groups was reliable (p<0,05), no significant difference in the frequency of complications between groups was observed. Recurrence of the disease in the long-term period per time of observation (1-3 years) was not occurred.
Conclusion. The worked out hernia sac repair technique aimed to reduce traumatism and intervention time can be widely used in surgical treatment of inguinal hernias. The proposed method of treatment of hernia sac at oblique inguinal hernia is considered to be justified in all cases when hernia sac is in dense adhesion with spermatic cord. The technique allows reducing the number of early postoperative complications in oblique inguinal hernias. The method is considered to be easily performed and it reduces surgical time.

CICATRICAL POST-BURN STRICTURE OF THE ESOPHAGUS: A REPEATED ESOPHAGOCOLOPLASTY

SEE ''Belarusian Medical Academy of Post-graduate education''¹,
The Republican Center of Surgical Gastroenterology and Coloproctology ²,
ME ''Minsk Regional Clinical Hospital'' ³,
The Republic of Belarus

The clinical case of the patient’s surgical treatment with the cicatricial esophageal stricture is presented. Gastrostomy was done as the initial procedure and later the retrosternal esophagoplasty with the right colon interposition was performed. Postoperative period was complicated by necrosis of the colon transplant, which was removed and the nourishing jejunostomy was applied. Due to the insufficient blood supply of the left colon flank, the patient was carried out the ligation of sigmoid artery for the left side colon revascularization by analogy with the technique of Shumacker H. and Battersby J. (1951) and Shalimov A.A. (1951), proposed by them to develop the vascular collaterals in the jejunum before esophagojejunoplasty. After restoration of an adequate blood supply in colonic transplant, the reconstructive-restorative procedures had been performed (laparotomy and esophagocoloplasty by using of left colon flank). Transpleural movement of transplant from the abdominal cavity to the neck using endoscope was considered the peculiarity of this case. It permitted to avoid thoracotomy. A clinical case is interesting by implementation of idea of revascularization of intestine to enhance blood supply to the colonic segment, allowing successfully to prepare left colon flank for esophagoplasty after right- sided esophageal graft necrosis.

SUCCESSFUL SURGICAL TREATMENT OF PATIENTS WITH ECHINOCOCCOSIS OF THE LEFT VENTRICLE AND LIVER

Republican Scientific Center of Cardiovascular Surgery
Dushanbe
The Republic of Tajikistan

The article presents the case of the successful treatment of a female with concomitant left ventricular and liver hydatid disease. Peculiarities of instrumental diagnosis and the chosen surgical approach are given. The patient was carried out step by step echinococcectomy from the left heart ventricle with swabbing of the residual cavity by the omentum on the vascular pedicle, derived through an incision in the diaphragm and echinococcectomy from the liver without capitonnage of the residual cavity. Echinococcectomy was performed on a beating heart, without capitonnage of the intracardiac portion of the fibrous capsule for the myocardial wall plasty that is of great interest to this clinical case. To prevent the development of the left ventricular aneurysm, the residual cavity was swabbed by the omentum strand on the vascular pedicle, derived through the incision in the diaphragm. During the control ECG and echocardiography in the postoperative period, a positive trend towards the disappearance of ischemic lesion was observed as well as increasing the contractility of the left ventricle. Echinococcectomy of the VIII liver segment was performed after 6 months by laparotomy with good immediate and remote results. In the observed period no signs of disease recurrence were revealed.

Dushanbe,
The Republic of Tajikistan

Objectives. The analysis of the experience in airway (trachea and bronchi) foreign body removal by flexible bronchoscope.
Methods. Removal of foreign bodies from the respiratory tract (FBRT) was performed in 47 patients. There were 27 (57,5%) females, and 20 (42,5%) males. Age of patients ranged from 8 to 72 years. In 46 cases the patients underwent chest X-ray, in one case – CT.
Results. Foreign bodies were located: in the trachea – 2 cases (4,2%), in the right bronchial tree – 26 (55,3%), in the left bronchial tree – 19 (40,4%).
The early admission to the medical establishment with FBRT composed only 74,4% (n=35) out of 47 cases. The symptoms of an acute aspiration were asfollows: an acute respiratory failure in 35 (77,7%) cases, cough – 45 (100%), vomiting - 4 (8,8%), stridulous breathingr – 5 (11,1%), bronchospasm – 4 (11,1%).
In 95,8% (n = 45) of observations, foreign bodies localized in the bronchi on different levels. Radiography may be used to locate foreign bodies for removal. In 37 cases X-ray was able to determine the type of foreign body and its localization; in 10 cases radiography was failed to show the localization of the foreign body. The foreign bodies in the respiratory tract were: the needles – 22 (46,8%); nails / screws – 11 (23,4%); fish bones / animal bones – 8 (17%); tooth / denture (fragments) – 3 (6,3%); dental tool – 1 (2,1%); a thorn from a rose – 1 (2,1%); pistachio shells – 1 (2,1%). In 46 patients the foreign bodies were successfully removed by means of fibrobronchoscopy but in one case thoracotomy was performed.
Conclusion. In recent years the number of cases of foreign bodies in respiratory tract tends to increase. The various changes in the bronchial tree, the severity of the inflammatory response depended on FB length of stay in the respiratory tract can be detected by bronchoscopy. Bronchoscopic foreign body removal is considered to be a safe and effective procedure in 97,8% of cases.
