Background. Pelvic organ prolapse is one of the most common women's diseases worldwide. Genital prolapse incidence among women over 50 is on average 41%. There are variety methods for genital prolapse treatment; they are divided into surgical and non-surgical ones. One of the conservative treatment methods is a use of pessaries. According to different studies an efficacy of pessary therapy is approximately 60%. Aim to estimate a safety and efficacy of genital prolapse conservative treatment with a cube pessary on the basis on standardized questionnaires. Outcomes and methods. In ANO “NRITO Clinic” Urology and Gynecology Center 26 women with various degree genital prolapse were treated with pessary within the period from August 2015 to March 2016. Efficacy of pessaries use, patient satisfaction with this treatment method and complications rate were estimated. Results. Urogynecological cube pessary use in a treatment of various types of genital prolapse is quite an effective method (p

CRS symptoms in children can be mild and uncharacteristic. The disease is multifactorial, and therefore requires a multifaceted, multidisciplinary approach. Treatment of CRS in children is difficult, infections often recur, and treatment methods are often ineffective. In children, surgery is performed infrequently, only when other therapies have failed. The first stage of surgery is adenoidectomy. Functional endoscopic surgery of the paranasal sinuses may be considered if no improvement of the patient after exhausting all possibilities of conservative treatment.

Tomas Poškus1,  Kęstutis Strupas21 Vilniaus universiteto ligoninės Santariškių klinikų Centro filialo 3-iasis pilvo chirurgijos skyrius,Žygimantų g. 3, LT-01102 Vilnius2 Vilniaus universiteto ligoninės Santariškių klinikų Gastroenterologijos,nefrourologijos ir chirurgijos klinika, Santariškių g. 2, LT-08660 VilniusEl paštas: [email protected] Tikslas Palyginti konservatyvaus ir mažai invazinio I–II laipsnio hemorojaus gydymą. Ligoniai ir metodai Nuo 2007 m. sausio 1 d. iki 2007 m. liepos 25 d. buvo gydyta 40 asmenų, sergančių I ir II laipsnio hemorojumi, t. y. tokie, kurių hemorojaus mazgai neiškrinta arba iškrinta tuštinantis ir savaime grįžta. Tiriamajam buvo siūloma dalyvauti tyrime, o jam sutikus išankstinės atsitiktinės atrankos būdu buvo priskirtas perrišimo guminiais žiedais arba konservatyvaus gydymo grupei. Po keturių savaičių nuo paskutinės perrišimo procedūros ligonis buvo apklausiamas ir apžiūrimas. Konservatyvaus gydymo grupės ligoniams buvo skiriamas standartinis konservatyvus gydymas – skaidulų turinti dieta, žvakutės Posterisan Forte, Detralex tabletės. Po keturių savaičių ligoniai atvyko pakartotinei apžiūrai. Po keturių savaičių nuo vaistų vartojimo pabaigos ligonis buvo apklausiamas ir apžiūrimas. Duomenys apdorojami EpiInfo programa (www.cdc.gov/epiinfo). Skirtumas tarp grupių buvo vertinamas kaip statistiškai reikšmingas, kai p vertė buvo mažesnė už 0,05. Rezultatai Tyrime dalyvavo 40 asmenų (23 moterys ir 17 vyrų, vidutinis amžius 45,8 metų (nuo 28 iki 73 m.), sirgusių I laipsnio (n = 13, 32,5%) ir II laipsnio (n = 27, 77,5%) hemorojumi. Demografinių ir ligos simptomų skirtumų tarp gydymo grupių nebuvo. Vertindami gydymo metodų poveikį kraujavimui nustatėme, kad perrišimas guminiais žiedais sėkmingiau panaikino kraujavimo simptomus, taip pat pastebėjome tendenciją, kad efektyviau sumažinamas ar panaikinamas iškritimas (14 ligonių po gydymo guminiais žiedais ir 9 ligoniai po konservatyvaus gydymo, p = 0,1). Mūsų tyrime gydymas guminiais žiedais dažniau sukeldavo nedidelių komplikacijų (p < 0,001) – greitai praeinantį silpnumą, neintensyvų skausmą, trunkantį vidutiniškai 2 dienas (nuo 1 iki 4 dienų). Pasitaikė viena pavojinga komplikacija po gydymo guminiais žiedais – praėjus 8 paroms po procedūros ligonis pradėjo gausiai tuštintis krauju ir krešuliais, išsivystė kolapsas ir ligonį teko operuoti – persiūti kraujuojančią vietą. Abu gydymo metodus ligoniai vertino vienodai ir taip pat vienodai rinktųsi tuos pačius gydymo būdus. Išvada Hemorojaus gydymas perrišant guminiais žiedais yra veiksmingesnis negu konservatyvus gydymas flavonoidais, vietiniais preparatais ir skaidulomis, tačiau sukeliantis daugiau komplikacijų. Būtina tirti vėlesnius šios studijos rezultatus, kad būtų nustatytas ilgalaikis abiejų gydymo metodų, ypač konservatyvaus gydymo, efektyvumas. Pacientus informavus apie nemalonius pojūčius gydant hemorojų guminiais žiedais, pasitenkinimas gydymu yra geras. Pagrindiniai žodžiai: hemorojus Randomized controlled trial of rubber band ligation vs. conservative treatment for first and second degree haemorrhoids Tomas Poškus1,  Kęstutis Strupas21 Vilnius University Hospital "Santariškių Clinics", Central Branch,III Department of Abdominal Surgery, Žygimantų str. 3, LT-01102 Vilnius, Lithuania2 Vilnius University Hospital "Santariškių Clinics", Clinic of Gastroenterology,Nefrourology and Surgery, Santariškių str. 2, LT-08660 Vilnius, LithuaniaE-mail: [email protected] Objective To compare the conservative treatment and invasive treatment in 1st and 2nd degree haemorrhoids. Patients and methods 40 patients with first and second degree haemorrhoids were treated from January 1 to July 25, 2007. They complained of either non-prolapsing or prolapsing and spontaneously reducing haemorrhoids. The patients were offered to participate in the study, and with their approval they were randomized to the rubber band ligation or the conservative treatment groups. Four weeks following the last treatment the patients were investigated. Patients in the conservative treatment group were prescribed a standard conservative treatment: fiber addition with wheat, Posterisan Forte suppositories, and Detralex tablets. Four weeks after the end of treatment the patients were investigated and the last questionnaire was filled in. Statistical analysis was performed using Epi Info software (www.cdc.gov/epiinfo). The differences between the groups were statistically significant when the p value was less than 0.05. Results 40 patients (23 female and 17 male) were included in the study, mean age 45.8 years (28–73) with first degree (n = 13, 32.5%) and second degree (n = 27, 77.5%) haemorrhoids. There were no differences between the groups as regards the demographic and clinical data. Rubber band ligation, in our experience, was more effective than conservative treatment in treating bleeding, and we also noted the tendency to better abolish prolapse (14 patients after rubber band ligation and 9 patients after conservative treatment had the disappearance of prolapse, (p = 0.1). Rubber band ligation gave more minor, self-limiting complications (p < 0,001) – minor pain for on average two (1–4) days, vasovagal effects. We encountered one severe complication: 8 days after rubber band ligation, the patient presented hypotensive with massive rectal bleeding; he was admitted to the hospital and operated on, with oversewing the bleeding site. Both treatment methods were evaluated by the patients equally, and both methods would be repeated by the patients, if necessary. Conclusion Rubber band ligation is more effective than conservative treatment with flavonoids, suppositories and fibre, however, it is associated with more complications. Long-term results of both treatment methods, especially after conservative tratment, should be evaluated. When the patients are informed adequately before the procedure, satisfaction with both methods of treatment is equal. Key words: haemorrhoids

Destructive lesions of the periodontium are a serious professional challenge for dentists. Along with tooth loss, which requires expensive prosthetics, chronic odontogenic inflammation provokes transient bacteremia and disrupts the homeostasis of the body. This leads to an exacerbation of somatic diseases, the development of allergic reactions and atherosclerotic damage to the walls of blood vessels. Timely diagnosis and prognosis, adequate choice of treatment methods play a key role in providing care to patients with this pathology. Depending on the clinical situation, both conservative and surgical strategies can be successful. The aim of this review is systematization of the scientific facts, which were accumulated over the past 5–10 years and describing the existing regenerative surgical techniques and promising possibilities of conservative treatment of destructive apical periodontal lesions. CONCLUSION: The latest materials for tissue regeneration developed by scientists are promising in complicated clinical cases associated with a significant loss of the bone tissue and spread of the lesion to the neighboring anatomical structures (maxillary sinus, nasal cavity, etc.). However, with the development of ideas of a tooth as of a nanostructured organ, integration of nanoscale particles with antimicrobial properties into the composition of temporary and permanent filling materials, conservative treatment methods also possess great practical potential. A deeper understanding of pathophysiology and microbiology of pathological process of cyst formation creates methodological basis for development by dentists of the novel therapeutic methods of treatment of periapical lesions that are currently regarded as a “sentence” to the invasive intervention – cystectomy, resection of the root apex or removal of the causal tooth. Effective endodontics is the key to sparing and predictable elimination of foci of chronic odontogenic infection that deranges homeostasis of the whole organism. This is a promising field for synthesis of fundamental and clinical knowledge, for international scientific cooperation with the primary aim to improve the quality of Human life.

The literature review describes various methods for treating patients with lymphedema of the extremities. Statistics show an increase in the incidence and disability of patients with this pathology. However, the possibilities of therapeutic measures in lymphedema are far from perfect.The analysis of literature data showed that the basis of treatment for lymphedema of the extremities is comprehensive conservative therapy with the use of pathogenetically grounded physical, mechanical, and medical methods. In complex schemes of conservative treatment for lymphedema, physiotherapy methods occupy a prominent place. The most common technique among them is regular combined decongestive therapy. This method is recognized by leading experts as the main one in treating patients with lower extremity lymphedema. Commitment of patients to treatment and their social and psychological counseling are of great importance. The choice of the volume and method of surgical intervention requires a difficult and individual assessment of pathological changes developing throughout the course of the disease.Despite certain improvements in treatment methods, lower extremity lymphedema is still an unsolved issue. The experience of most specialists involved in lymphedema treatment demonstrates a reasonable balance between basic conservative and surgical treatment methods. Undoubtedly, results of evaluation of these methods will improve the choice of an optimal technique for treating patients with lymphedema of the extremities.
