Introduction. Сolon agangliosis (CA) belongs to a group of severe congenital malformations of the colon that can only be treated by surgical approach. The Soave-Boley technique is one of the most physiological and technically acceptable among pediatric surgeons from from all over the world. Aim – evaluate the early and long-term results of surgical treatment of CA in children by Soave-Boley method. Materials and methods. We analysed surgical treatment of 774 children with various forms of CA aged from birth to 18 years for the period from 1980 to 2020, using the Soave-Boley method by the formation of the primary colo-anal anastomosis by manual (suture) and mechanical (stapler) method. Results. All patients survived. Early postoperative surgical complications were seen in 19 (2.45%) of 774 children operated by Soave-Boley method: in 15 – after the formation of the primary colo-anal anastomosis by manual (sutures) method and 4 – after the imposition of a colo-anal anastomosis by mechanical (stapler) method. Long-term postoperative complications were noted in 15 (1.94%) of 774 children operated by Soave-Boley method: 14 – with a manual (suture) and 1 – with a mechanical (stapler) colo-anal anastomosis. Re-operation was successfully performed in 30 (3.87%) patients with reconstructing colo-anal anastomosis manually with Soave-Boley method after initial correction of CA in other clinics by other methods. Periodic episodes of soiling were seen in the remote period in 47 (6.07%) of 774 operated children which was treated conservatively. The success of the Soave-Boley technique is confirmed by a much lower number of early (2.45%) and long-term (1.94%) postoperative surgical complications, compared with those after the use of other methods of open surgical correction – 17.52% and 16.35%, respectively. Conclusions. Soave-Boley operation with colo-anal anastomosis by manual (suture) and mechanical (stapler) methods in comparison with other methods is the most effective method of radical correction of CA as open surgical approach in children of different age groups as single staged or double staged interventions. According to the technical capabilities and results of the early and long period, the Soave-Boley technique with colo-anal anastomosis by manual (ligature) method is the operation of choice for both primary and re-surgical correction of CA compared to any other methods. The research was carried out in accordance with the principles of the Helsinki Declaration. The study protocol was approved by the Local Ethics Committee of participating institution. No conflict of interest was declared by the authors. Key words: agangliosis, colon, children, surgical treatment, results.

The experience of surgical treatment of 19 patients with tumors of the upper-thoracic spine is analyzed. All the patients had undergone decompressive-stabilizing surgical procedures. Surgical approach, form of decompression and fixation were determined depending on the signs of compression of the spinal cord and neural structures, etiology and degree of the vertebral body destruction. Good and satisfactory short- and long-term results were achieved in all the patients. The case of surgical treatment of female patient with giant neurofibromas of Th2 vertebrae is also reported.

The effectiveness of cytoreductive operations in geriatric patients with stage IV colon cancer was assessed. A comparative analysis of the results of surgical treatment of metastatic colon cancer in patients of various age groups was carried out. The molecular biological properties of colon adenocarcinoma in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer were studied. The clinical significance of immunohistochemical markers as the proliferative index of stem cancer cells (ALDH+Ki-67+) and the chemokine receptor CXCR4 was determined for predicting the long-term results of surgical treatment of patients with stage IV colon cancer has been determined. It was found that the survival rates of elderly and senile patients are not inferior to those in patients under 60 years of age. A comparative analysis of the immediate and long-term results of treatment indicates the effectiveness of cytoreductive interventions in elderly and senile patients suffering from stage IV colon cancer. It was found that the expression level of the receptor for CXCR4 chemokines and the proliferative activity of stem cancer cells correlate with the life expectancy of patients after cytoreductive interventions and can be used to clarify the indications for their implementation.

The results of surgical treatment of 36 patients with scoliosis, aged 18-29, were presented. Correction by Harrington distractor and posterior spondylosyndesis with allografts was performed. The average deformity correction achieved made up 38,8% of the initial value. Long term results (from 2 to 9 years) were studied in 29 patients. In 2 patients, complete loss of the correction was noted. In the rest of patients, the final correction varied from 9,9 to 49%, average 25,7%, of the initial value. The less is the scoliosis degree and age of a patient, the better is outcome of surgical correction. The preoperative pain syndrome being present in 7 patients was eliminated after operation.

The paper presents a completed case of the surgical treatment of a 10-year-old female patient with progressive grade IV idiopathic scoliosis who underwent surgical correction using total transpedicular fixation. The paper demonstrates long-term results of treatment of idiopathic scoliosis in the actively growing patient without the use of epiphyseodesis and staged surgical interventions.

The aim of the work was to analyze the long-term results of using a temporary “liquid” implant in the surgery of congenital glaucoma in children. The basis of the developed method of filtrative antiglaucomatous surgery (Patent of Ukraine No. 45099 of 2009) – viscosinusotrabeculotomy – has been set the task of reducing the risk of developing intra- and postoperative complications, reducing the scarring rate and maintaining the newly created ways of the intraocular fluid outflow, which in general will increase the effectiveness of surgical treatment of congenital glaucoma in children. 54 children (91 eyes) with simple congenital glaucoma at the age of 1 to 36 months were operated on average (8.7 ± 8.2) months. The persistent and long-lasting hypotensive effect achieved due to viscosinusotrabeculotomy in children with developed and far-advanced stages of congenital glaucoma stops the processes of stretching of the membranes of the eye and stabilizes their size, which in general allows preserving and visual functions improving, in infancy – creating conditions for their formation.

In the current oncological practice surgical treatment of gastroesophageal cancer with high involvement of the esophagus can extend to total esophago-gastrectomy with colonic interposition as the main method of radical treatment. However the technical complexity and high risk of the intervention are factors in determining the divergent views on the operation itself, testimony for the criteria of patient’s selection, choice of surgical access and the formation of a colonic graft in conjunction with method of esophageal reconstruction. The long-term results of operative intervention depend primarily on the extent of tumor process but obviously higher than after conservative treatment. This article presents a brief critical overview of the main aspects of the simultaneous application of esophago-gastrectomy in surgery of gastroesophageal cancer with high esophageal involvement and our clinical case of successful surgical treatment of a woman with pregnancy-associated gastroesophageal cancer.
