♦ High-energy trauma often results in serious spinal fractures. The junctional zone between the relatively stiff thoracic spine and the more mobile lumbar spine is particularly susceptible to injury♦ The role of decompression in spinal cord injury remains uncertain at level three or four evidence♦ Unstable fractures may be stabilized using modern fracture fixation methods enabling easier nursing care in polytrauma and earlier mobilization than non-surgical treatment♦ There is level two evidence that stable thoracolumbar fractures have similar outcomes with surgical and non-surgical treatment♦ There are many fracture classification systems that are not validated or have poor inter- and intraobserver error. Recent modern validated systems may in the future assist in the rational planning of interventions for spinal injury.

The leading role of ovarian steroid hormones in the pathogenesis of uterine fibroids is confirmed by epidemiological, clinical and experimental studies. The new approaches to the treatment of this disease may be developed on the basis of the biological and genetic mechanisms underlying the occurrence and development of leiomyomas. The use of ulipristal acetate in patients with uterine leiomyoma may be a promising method for preparing them to the surgical procedures, but also for avoiding surgical treatment and related hypoestrogenic conditions, which results in the improvement of the women’s quality of life.
