Despite the high level of development of modern surgery and pharmacology, none of the surgical techniques (hysterectomy / myometectomy or embolization of the uterine arteries) or drug therapy is not a guarantee of the absence of a future recurrence of uterine fibroids and endometriosis. However, there are methods of effective pharmacotherapy for their manifestations. In particular, selective progesterone receptor modulators (SMPR) demonstrate high efficacy in respect of the symptoms of myoma and the size of the nodes, which allows them to be considered as a complete alternative to the surgical treatment of uterine fibroids. The objective: evaluation of the effectiveness of the use of SMPR in the treatment of combined gynecological diseases. Patients and methods. The study included materials for the observation of 40 women 20–52 years old with uterine myoma against the background of combined gynecological pathology (endometriosis, infertility), which carried out the enucleation of myomatous nodes by laparotomy, laparoscopic or transcervical access. Patients were divided into two groups. In the main group (n=20), women received SMPR – ulipristal acetate (UPA) 5 mg daily for 3 months. The UIA's bioavailability is 70%. The optimal therapeutic single dose for the analyzed pathology is 5 mg. After 3 months, the first assessment of the effectiveness of the drug with combined gynecological pathology was conducted, then 14 women were exposed to surgical treatment, and 6 of 20 patients continued conservative treatment for another 1–4 months. After the operation to prevent the recurrence of uterine fibroids and endometriosis, 8 patients continued treatment of UPA for 4 months. In the comparison group (n=20), women underwent surgical treatment at similar rates, but the SMPR was not assigned to surgery. Results. Of the studies indicate that the use of such a selective modulator of progesterone receptors, like vandalite acetate, in the treatment of uterine myomas in combination with endometriosis is safe and well tolerated, leads to rapid persistent coping of uterine bleeding, a significant decrease in the size of nodes and foci of endometriosis, and the achieved The therapeutic effect is maintained even after the abolition of therapy. Conclusion. Thus, the use of the drug ulipristal acetate in the treatment of uterine fibroate on the background of combined gynecologic pathology is highly effective and promising as an independent and integrated treatment method of this category of patients. Key words: uterine myoma, endometriosis, selective modulators of progesterone receptors, viperpatel acetate, combined oral contraceptives.

Aim. To analyze the literature data on modern approaches to morcellation of myomatous nodes in laparoscopic surgery and to highlight this area in a historical aspect. To form an idea of the main difficulties associated with morcellation, which contributed to and contribute to the improvement of the technique of this manipulation. Materials and methods. The review includes data from foreign articles published in the elibrary.ru and PubMed databases on this topic. Results. It describes both modern trends in the surgical treatment of patients with uterine myoma, and historical aspects of improving methods aimed at reducing risks, reducing the time of surgical intervention and improving its safety. Analyzed data on the use of electromorcellation, carried out both with the use of plastic containers, and without them. Conclusion. High requirements for surgical interventions contributed to the emergence of such a method of intracorporeal fragmentation of drugs, such as morcellation, which led to a significant reduction in the proportion of laparotomic operations in the treatment of patients with my uterus. The introduction of laparoscopy in the surgical treatment of uterine myoma allowed to achieve a fundamentally new high level of rehabilitation of patients. Removing removed drugs from the abdominal cavity is associated with a certain risk. Despite the significant number of proposed methods and devices for morcellation, they all require further improvement, since it is necessary to completely exclude contact of the myoma node tissue with abdominal organs in the extraction process. Currently, active research continues on ways to realize all the benefits of minimally invasive technologies in compliance with the rules of oncological safety.

Background. The preferred treatment method of most hydatidiform moles is suction aspiration. In rare circumstances uterine abnormalities may preclude surgical treatment.Case. We report a case of complete molar pregnancy successfully treated with methotrexate followed by EMA/CO. A 38-year-old woman with a complete hydatidiform mole and multiple uterine fibroids underwent a failed attempt at suction aspiration. Following treatment with methotrexate, a nonmetastatic persistent trophoblastic tumour developed. Six cycles of EMA/CO led to complete remission.Conclusion. We propose that primary treatment of molar pregnancies with chemotherapy is a useful treatment option in cases where uterine abnormalities interfere with suction aspiration.

The aim of the study – to analyze the modern literature, summarize current approaches to surgical treatment of tubular breast type II and identify the causes of poor results. Tubular breast deformity relates to congenital connective tissue malformations, occurs in puberty and causes a great deal of psychological discomfort to women. The majority of authors note that type II of tubular breast is the most common among patients referred to clinic for a surgical correction. In fact, the correction of this type of malformation is a reconstructive procedure associated with a number of challenges. The goal of such operation is not only to increase a volume of the breast lower pole, but also to cover the implant maximally using soft tissues to achieve a normal lower pole contour. To date, a number of surgical techniques have been proposed to address these problems, such as C. Puckett and M. Concannon (1990), L. Ribeiro (1998), E. Muti (1996), A. Mandrekas (2003) and their modern modifications. Fat grafting techniques in treatment of tubular breast are also getting popular, but all have some drawbacks. Conclusions. A high level of complications and the absence of a universal method for correction of tubular breast type II are preconditions for improving the surgical technique to correct this pathology.

The article presents an assessment and analysis of the most important medical and social risk factors for long-term postoperative urogenital disorders in women of reproductive age after radical surgical treatment for uterine fibroids. Radical operations for uterine fibroids cause an increase in the proportion of urogenital disorders, the clinical manifestations of which have a negative impact on the physical, psycho-emotional form and social significance of women in society. A survey of 80 women aged 40 to 50 years, the main group included 40 patients who underwent vaginal hysterectomy, the comparison group consisted of 40 patients with hysterectomy performed by abdominal access. Data on the assessment of pelvic floor condition and urogenital dysfunction using a standardized POP-Q system, both at the stage of preoperative observation and for 3 and 5 years after surgery. Сonducted surveys, filling diaries of pain, urination, physical examination and bimanual examination, determination of the pH of the vaginal contents, colposcopy, evaluated the index of the vaginal condition, the state of the microbiota of the mucous membranes, a comprehensive urodynamic examination, cystometry, ultrasound examination of the pelvic organs and assessment of ovarian structure.The most important risk factors are identified, which would allow to form groups of patients that require individualized approaches in the choice of surgical techniques and rehabilitation program. These included obstetric and gynecological history (birth of large fetuses, episiotomies, birth injuries, high birth parity); ovarian surgery, the use of gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists. chronic diseases of the respiratory system and gastrointestinal tract, accompanied by increased intra-abdominal pressure; the presence of stigmas of undifferentiated connective tissue dysplasia; clinical manifestations of pelvic floor failure and functional disorders of the urethral sphincter. When choosing a method and access in case of surgical treatment for uterine fibroids, it is advisable to take into account the presence of pelvic prolapse and initial dysuric manifestations in women, the functional state of the sphincter apparatus and urethral hypermobility, obstetric and gynecological pathology and previous surgery on the organs of the uterus. the patient, her awareness of possible complications, the surgeon’s experience and his choice of surgical techniques.

The cohort prospective comparative study investigated the efficacy of mifepristone use in patients after surgical treatment of uterine myoma. It was shown that the use of mifepristone at a dose of 50 mg/day in a continuous mode for 3 months after surgical treatment for proliferating uterine myoma led to the absence of recurrences of the disease for 2 years after the drug withdrawal. The use of mifepristone after embolization of uterine arteries allowed to significantly reduce the size of the node by 25% during 12 months and by 50% (p<0.05) after 24 months. Complex treatment of uterine myoma, including myomectomy and drug therapy with mifepristone, allowed to realize reproductive function in 46% of patients, and delivery through the natural birth canal occurred in 24% of patients.

Orthognathic surgery and orthodontic treatment are required for patients with dentofacial deformities to obtain an ideal facial esthetic with good functioning. Recently, characterized by the surgery-first approach, an integrated orthodontic–surgical treatment has been introduced as an emerging solution to dentofacial deformity treatment. The surgery-first approach is regarded to have less treatment time and quicker enhancement of a facial profile than the conventional orthodontic–surgical treatment. Moreover, the recent advances in computing and imaging have allowed the adoption of 3-dimensional (3D) virtual planning protocols in orthognathic surgery as well as digital orthodontic treatment, which enables a paradigm shift when realizing virtual planning properly. These techniques then allow the surgeon and orthodontist to collaborate, plan, and simulate the dentofacial deformity treatment before performing the whole procedure. Along this line, in this research article, we present an integrated treatment method for the realization of an effective deformity treatment. Specifically, we implemented the integrated 3D technique by combining it with the surgery-first orthognathic approach (SFOA) as a novel treatment method for the patients. The outcomes from the combined treatments of the patients with dentofacial deformity, in practice, have demonstrated that our proposed 3D technique in orthognathics and orthodontics using clear aligner therapy (e.g., Invisalign) can enhance the satisfactory level of the patient since the start of treatment then improve their quality of life. As a result, the combined techniques realize the novel integrated treatment method using 3D technology with the use of 3D imaging and modeling as a promising development trend of dentistry, which fits into the context of Dentistry 4.0 as a key enabler to the concept of sustainable dentistry development.

Aim: To assess the efficacy and safety of ulipristal acetate (UA) use in uterine myoma patients before surgical treatment. Material and methods: 78 patients of reproductive age with uterine bleeding and anemia, who underwent laparoscopic myomectomy, were included in the study. Patients were divided into two groups: the first group consisted of 43 women who received 5 mg of ulipristal acetate daily for 3 months before the operation and the second group consisted of 35 patients without ulipristal treatment. A comparative analysis was made between clinical laboratory data groups, pathomorphological changes in myoma and endometrial nodes, and long-term treatment results. Results: As a result of UA therapy uterine bleeding stopped in all patients of the first group, the size of myoma nodes decreased by 25% according to visual diagnostics data, hemoglobin content normalized without iron-containing drugs. Duration of the operation and volume of intraoperative blood loss were less in the first group of patients in comparison with such parameters in the second group. Conclusion: Use of ulipristal acetate for preoperative assessment of patients with uterine myoma of reproductive age suffering from uterine bleeding and anemia is effective and safe.

Background: Sticker sarcoma, also called venereal sarcoma or venereal lymphosarcomatosis, is a tumor of the external genital organs in females and males. In male animals the penis and foreskin (prepuce) are affected, in the female, it happens in vagina (vagina) and labia (vulva). The diagnosis of sticker sarcoma is based on the chronic discharge, the typical locations and the characteristic appearance of the tumor. Methods: We have relied on the treatment method on the complete surgical removal of all cancer cells that we can access. Results: After surgery, we notice recurrent tumors about six months after surgical treatment, indicating the need for other treatments in addition to surgery. Conclusion: Although spontaneous regressions of sticker sarcoma are documented (with permanent immunity), chemotherapy is the treatment of choice today. Irradiation should also be effective. If the tumor is only removed surgically, there is a high rate of recurrence, and this is what happened with the case that we treated, as the tumor reappeared after less than six months.
