EVAR (endovascular aneurism repair) is the preferred method for the surgical treatment of ananeurysm. The advantage of this type of surgical intervention is that a smaller number of postoperative complications will occur. The main diagnostic tasks for patients after EVAR are to determine the size of the aneurysmal sac, detection of an endoleak, detection of the endoprosthesis migration and the deformation of the stent graft itself. Conclusion: early detection of complications in the postoperative period remains the main problem for monitoring patients after EVAR. Duplex scanning is a safe, non-invasive and effective method of measuring the size of an aneurysmal sac and detecting possible complications after EVAR.

Objective: To assess the efficacy of hemorrhoidectomy with Milligan-Morgan technique in the author’s modification.Methods: Results of surgical treatment of 558 patients aged 21–72 years with complicated hemorrhoids of III–IV stage were analyzed. The group of clinical comparison (207 patients) was operated according to standard scheme, the main group (351 patients) – according to author’s technology with modified technique for treating the hemorrhoid bolus using betamethasone.Results: When using the author’s technique, a more significant decrease in postoperative pain syndrome severity was achieved: injection analgesics were not required already in a day, and after 6 days the pain syndrome was stopped in all cases. Only three patients (0.9%) demonstrated an acute urinary retention up to two days. The group of clinical comparison maintained a longterm (up to three months) pain syndrome; postoperative urinary retention was registered in 38 cases (18.4%); 9 patients (4.3%) developed blood loss in the area of surgical intervention.Conclusions: Suggested technique of surgical treatment for hemorrhoids is quite effective, simple and can be implemented in any surgical inpatient facility.

Surgical treatment results for 27 patients with interdigital keratosis of the foot were analyzed. To determine the predisposing factors for keratosis development data of clinical and roentgenologic examination were used. In all cases transcutaneous technique that enabled to avoid surgical intervention directly on a pathologic focus was applied. Mean follow up period made up 6 months. It was shown that transcutaneous surgical intervention was an effective and reproducible method for interdigital keratosis treatment. That technique provided positive results with minimum risk of postoperative complications in the majority of cases and could be used at outpatient department.

Use elixir Altai ("Vitavis") in combination with ion-activated with water by means of such a complex contingent cancer patients as patients with metastatic bone fractures of the upper and lower limbs can reduce the early postoperative period, and to reduce to a minimum infectious complications and improve quality of life. The problem of postoperative complications, until now, is not solved. In oncologic patients, and those more in by III and As IV stages occurs it immunnodefitsit, which is caused not only by basic disease, but also by conse-quences of khimio- beam therapy. In connection with this appears the difficulty in the surgical treatment, caused by postoperative complications. As a result surgical treatment appears surgical injury, oxidizing stress, disturbance of homeostasis and oppression of immunity, which leads to an even larger disturbance of immunity in oncologic patients, which decreases the unspecific resistibility of organism. The application of adaptogena of the elixir of Altai (“Vitavis”) in combination with the ionic- activated aqueous means makes it possible to level and to reduce on no oxidizing stress, to increase the unspecific resistibility of the organism of oncologic patient and to increase immuni-ty. Moreover, powerful antioxidant - the ionic- activated aqueous means strengthens the action of adaptogena of the elixer of Altai (“Vitavis”), which leads to the decrease of postoperative infectious complications, reduces postoperative period, improves the quality of life and enlarges indications to the surgical treatment in oncologic patients with III it and IV by the stages of diseases.

Ahterosclerosis of vessels of the lower extremities is widely distributed in the population. Open surgical revascularization is an efficient method for treatment of this pathology. One of the rare postoperative complications is an anastomosis aneurysm development. We report about a clinical case of a 74-year-old male with a giant (25 cm in diameter) aneurysm of the proximal anastomosis after femoropopliteal bypass. Open aneurysmectomy was performed, and the postoperative period was uneventful.

ABSTRACT Objective: to analyze the surgical treatment of patients with recurrent megaesophagus followed at the esophageal-stomach-duodenal outpatient clinic of the Hospital de Clínicas - UNICAMP. Methods: a retrospective study, from 2011 to 2017, with 26 patients with Chagas or idiopathic megaesophagus, surgically treated, and who recurred with dysphagia. Clinical, endoscopic and radiographic aspects were assessed and correlated with the performed surgical procedures. Results: 50% had dysphagia for liquids, 69% regurgitation, 65.3% heartburn, 69.2% weight loss and 69.2% had Chagas disease. In addition, 38.4% had megaesophagus stage 1 and 2 and 61.5% stage 3 and 4. Regarding the reoperations, 53% of them underwent Heller-Pinotti surgery by laparoscopy, Serra-Dória in 30.7% and esophageal mucosectomy in 7.9%. In 72% of the reoperations there were no postoperative complications, and 80% of the patients had a good outcome, with reduction or elimination of dysphagia. Among the reoperated patients undergoing the laparoscopic Heller-Pinotti technique, three reported little improvement of dysphagia in the postoperative period and among those who underwent Serra-Dória surgery, 100% had no dysphagia. It was observed that, when the time between the first procedure and the reoperation was longer, the better the surgical result was, with statistical significant decreased dysphagia (p=0.0013, p<0.05). Conclusions: there was a preference to perform laparoscopic re-miotomy and, as a second option, Serra-Dória surgery, for patients with recurrent megaesophagus. Esophagectomy or esophageal mucosectomy were reserved for more severe patients.

Incidence and pattern of disturbed sensitivity in the zone of surgical intervention was studied in 24 patients with clavicle fractures. Traumatic damage of supraclavicular nerve (not related to surgery) was observed only in 1 case. Disturbance of sensitivity in the zone of surgical intervention was noted in 21 (87.5%) patients. Mean area of anesthesia made up 44.5±29.3 cm2 (from 8.0 to 125.5 cm2). That complication developed at both horizontal and vertical surgical approaches. Intraoperatively supraclavicular nerves were visualized and preserved in 6 patients however disturbed sensitivity in early postoperative period was observed in 4 cases. Preventive isolation of supraclavicular nerves does not always ensure the preservation of sensitivity in early postoperative period.

Improving the effectiveness of treatment of urolithiasis is a topical issue in modern urology. Despite a large number of studies on this problem, there is currently no unified algorithm for assessing postoperative complications of removal of calculi of the renal cavity system by transurethral access. Purpose of the study: based on a retrospective analysis to adapt the classification of postoperative complications according to Clavien Dind from 2004 to describe the complications of transurethral contact pyelocalicolithotripsy. Materials and methods. A retrospective analysis of the results of surgical treatment of 211 patients with kidney stones with a density of 960 HU to 1840 HU was performed. Ultrasonic energy was used for lithotripsy. Criteria for the normal course of the postoperative period in patients have been formulated. Results. The number of postoperative complications was calculated. The obtained data are distributed according to the corresponding gradations of the adapted Clavien Dindо classification. Conclusion. The improved Clavien Dindo classification, taking into account the adaptation, can be used as an up-to-date, accessible and logical template for assessing the postoperative complications of transurethral contact pyelocalicolithotripsy.

Cleft foot is a rare congenital malformation characterized by a central conical defect extending from the periphery of the foot towards the tarsus, affecting one or more central rays. Surgical intervention should be attempted at a very early age to prevent further pathological adaptations. The authors present the case of an adult woman admitted with painful callosities on the feet and difficulty selecting shoes. She was diagnosed with cleft foot and submitted to surgical treatment. The postoperative period was uneventful and the patient was very satisfied with the results of the surgery. This is only the second reported case of surgical management of cleft foot in an adult patient, and the first to describe the use of internal fixation. Level of Evidence V; Therapeutic Studies; Expert Opinion.
