AbstractLymphedema is a chronic disease with a progressively ingravescent evolvement and an appearance of recurrent complications of acute lymphangitic type; in nature it is mostly erysipeloid and responsible for a further rapid increase in the volume and consistency of edema. The purpose of this work is to present our experience in the minimally invasive treatment for recurrence of lymphedema; adapting techniques performed in the past which included large fasciotomy with devastating results cosmetically; but these techniques have been proposed again by the use of endoscopic equipment borrowed from the advanced laparoscopy surgery, which allows a monoskin access of about one cm.

Staged Treatment

A clinical case of successful surgical treatment of a patient with chronic pancreatitis, complicated by suppuration of a postnecrotic cyst and the formation of a cysto-gastric fistula. As a result of the conservative and minimally invasive treatment, the pseudocyst was drained, and the cystogastric fistula was closed. The staged treatment was completed by resection of the head of the pancreas with the formation of an anastomosis.

Palmar Aponeurosis

An analysis of the results of surgical treatment of patients with Dupuytren’s contracture using tactics of minimally invasive percutaneous aponeurotomy and open aponeurectomy is presented. Dupuytren’s contracture (CD) is a chronic disease characterized by cicatricial degeneration of the palmar aponeurosis with a predominant lesion of the working population. The need to quickly restore the function of the upper limb in the postoperative period in patients with CD leads to the need to develop new and modernize the existing minimally invasive tactics of surgical treatment, allowing to minimize the duration of treatment and the risks of various complications.

Glycemic Profile

The objective: to study the state of the glycemic profile in patients with ureterolithiasis and concomitant diabetes mellitus (DM) who underwent various methods of minimally invasive surgical treatment. Patients and methods. The study involved 204 people, 130 (63.7%) men and 74 (36.3%) women, the average age – 34.6±5.5 years. Subjects were divided into VI clinical groups: I – persons with diabetes and ureterolithiasis, who underwent TUСL and CS therapy per os (n=57); II – persons with DM and ureterolithiasis, who underwent TUСL without HS therapy (n=44); III – persons with DM and ureterolithiasis who were treated with ECU without HS therapy (n=32); IV – persons with ureterolithiasis without diabetes who underwent TUСL without HS therapy (n=41); V (control 1) – of the person with diabetes, who had an independent passage of stones from the ureter (n=18); VI (control 2) – healthy volunteers, with no signs of pathology (n=12). The diagnosis of ureterolithiasis was verified using clinico-anamnestic, laboratory and instrumental methods of investigation, according to the MHP protocols, before and after the disintegration of the stones by the method of transurethral contact lithotripsy (TUСL) and ESWL. Results. Elevated levels of HbA1c indicated chronic hyperglycemia for a long time, with the presence of violations of carbohydrate homeostasis and the need for its correction before and during surgery for ureterolithiasis. At this minimally invasive treatment of ureterolithiasis, the presence of an operational injury factor, with manifestations of permanent obstruction in the upper urinary tract (ESWL operation) did not contribute to a decrease in glucose levels in plasma and urine, unlike states with rapid elimination of acute calculous process (TUCL operation). Conclusion. Assistance to patients with diabetes mellitus, which is planned surgical treatment, allows to improve the condition of patients in the postoperative period and reduce the risk of postoperative сomplications. Key words: ureterolithiasis, diabetes mellitus, glycosylated hemoglobin, glucosuria, minimally invasive methods of lithotripsy.

The Cost

This paper reports our experience in the surgical treatment of varicocele; 134 patients were operated upon, 78 with retroperitoneal approach under general anaesthesia and 56 with inguinal approach under local anaesthesia. We evaluated the patients’ compliance, the cost of the procedure, the frequency of complications and the recurrence rate. We strongly advise the inguinal approach as the procedure of choice because patient compliance is greater, recovery faster and the cost is lower. We are compelled, however, to keep the patient in hospital for two days because of the D.R.G. payment system.

<b><i>Objective:</i></b> To critically appraise the methodological rigour of the clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) vis-à-vis BPH surgery as used by specialist research associations in the US, Europe and UK, and to compare whether the guidelines cover all or only some of the available treatments. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> The current guidelines issued by the EUA, AUA and NICE associations have been analyzed by 4 appraisers using the AGREE-II instrument. We also compared the recommendations given in the guidelines for surgical and minimally invasive treatment to find out which of these CPGs include most of the available treatment options. <b><i>Results:</i></b> According to the AGREE II tool, the median scores of domains were: domain 1 scope and purpose 66.7%, domain 2 stakeholder involvement 50.0%, domain 3 rigor of development 65.1%, domain 4 clarity of presentation 80.6%, domain 5 applicability 33.3%, domain 6 editorial independence 72.9%. The overall assessment according to AGREE II is 83.3%. The NICE guideline scored highest on 5 out of 6 domains and the highest overall assessment score (91.6%). The EAU guideline scored lowest on 4 out of 6 domains and has the lowest overall assessment score (79.1%). <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> The analyzed CPGs comprehensively highlight the minimally invasive and surgical treatment options for BPH. According to the AGREE II tool, the domains for clarity of presentation and editorial independence received the highest scores. The stakeholder involvement and applicability domains were ranked as the lowest. Improving the CPG in these domains may help to improve the clinical utility and applicability of CPGs.
