Aim. To substantiate the recommendations on the tactics of recurrent operations for strabismus in children on the basis of histological investigation of the fragments of «weakened» muscles. Methods. Conducted was a retrospective analysis of recurrent surgical treatment of 2 patients with concomitant convergent strabismus. In order to determine the cause of dysfunction of the muscles conducted was a histological study of 80 fragments of the lateral rectus muscles, which were excised during surgical treatment of convergent strabismus. Results. Muscle fibers were found only in the distal sections during the resection of the lateral rectus muscles at a distance of 8.5-9 mm. Taking into consideration the fact that at point were the muscle transitions into the tendon located are the palisade nerve endings, which may play the major role in the contraction process, the exceedence of the above mentioned amount of muscle resection during strabismus surgery is dangerous, since it can lead to the disruption of the eye mobility. Conclusion. During recurrent operations for strabismus correction it is recommended to use major recessions of the «strong» muscles, and for ease of muscle fixation at a great distance from the attachment point - the technique of the «sliding noose».

AbstractIn the Finnish medical discussion during the middle decades of the twentieth century, the challenging differential diagnostics between hyperthyroidism and various neuroses was perceived to yield a risk of unnecessary surgical interventions of psychiatric patients. In 1963, the Finnish surgeon Erkki Saarenmaa claimed that ‘the most significant mark of a neurotic was a transverse scar on the neck’, a result of an unnecessary thyroid surgery. The utterance was connected to the complex nature of thyroid diseases, which seemed to be to ‘a great extent psychosomatic’. Setting forth from this statement, the article aims to decipher the connection between hyperthyroidism, unnecessary surgical treatment and the psychosomatic approach in Finnish medicine. Utilising a wide variety of published medical research and discussion in specialist journals, the article examines the theoretical debate around troublesome diagnostics of functional complaints. It focuses on the introduction of new medical ideas, namely the concepts of ‘psychosomatics’ and ‘stress’. In the process, the article aims to unveil a definition of psychosomatic illness that places it on a continuum between psychological and somatic illness. That psychosomatic approach creates a space with interpretative potential can be applied to the historiography of psychosomatic phenomena more generally. Further inquiry into the intersections of surgery and psychosomatics would enrich both historiographies. It is also argued that the historical study of psychosomatic syndromes may become skewed, if the term ‘psychosomatic’ is from the outset taken to signify something that is all in the mind.

Abstract. The experience of treating 263 patients with acute abscesses and lung gangrene is generalized. Acute abscesses are mainly subject to conservative treatment; surgical interventions were performed in 13%. With gangrene of the lung, conservative treatment and palliative operations are futile. Preference is given to early radical operations performed before dangerous complications occur. Possible ways to reduce mortality in acute pulmonary suppuration are indicated.

A surgical treatment of the joints of the pelvic ring, especially the pubic joint is a separate and complex problem. When using standard plates, which are applied in the treatment of patients with fresh injuries to stabilize old injuries of the pelvic ring, problems arise with fatigue fracture of plates, destabilization of the metal structure and the need for repeated surgical interventions. Therefore, in the case of old injuries, during surgical treatment, it is necessary to use other tactical approaches to fixing pelvic injuries and to search for adapted structures for such cases. The purpose — to study the features of fixation of old injuries of the pelvic ring and to determine the results of different methods of the anterior pelvis fixation in old cases. Materials and methods. A retrospective analysis of the performed surgical treatment was carried out. In 2000-2015, in the first department of National Medical Research Center of Traumatology and Orthopedics named after N.N. Priorov, 117 patients underwent surgical treatment of old injuries of the anterior pelvic ring under our supervision using standard reconstructive plates applied in the surgical treatment of new injuries of the pelvic ring. Results. Of the 65 patients who underwent fixation of an old injury of the anterior semiring with AO reconstructive plates and AO pelvic plates, installed in a standard manner as in new injuries, 12 patients (10,2%) experienced migration or fracture of structures within 2 to 6 months from the operation. In 52 patients, fixation of the anterior section with two AO plates was applied, one of which was located in a standard way along the upper edge of the pubic bones, the second was implanted additionally along the anterior surface of the pelvic ring perpendicular to the first one. In this group, migration and destabilization of the structures was observed in 7 patients (13,4%) within a period from 2 weeks to 2 months from the date of the operation. Conclusion. The analysis of the study results suggests that surgical treatment of old injuries of the anterior pelvic ring requires a special approach to the choice of the surgical fixation method, which differs from the treatment of new injuries. Over time, in the absence of treatment for injuries and ruptures of the pelvic ring, cicatricial-fibrous adhesions of the pelvic ring occur, which does not always ensure the stability of the pelvic ring, but leads to rigid post-traumatic deformity of the pelvis. Taking into account the cases of destabilization in groups 1 — 10,2% and 2 — 13,4%, as well as the assessment of the long-term results according to the Majeed scale, the use of standard methods for fixing the anterior pelvic semiring can be considered ineffective in old pelvic injuries.

Results of randomized prospective study with participation of 94 patients aged from 20 to 70 years with monosegmental lumbar spine lesions are presented. Minimum invasive surgical interventions were performed in 55 patients from the main group. Control group consisted of 39 patients in whom decompressive-stabilizing operations via conventional posteromedian approach with skeletization of posterior segments of vertebral column were performed. Average size of operative wound in open interventions more than 10 times exceeded that size in minimum invasive interventions and made up 484 ± 56 and 36 ± 12 sq.cm, respectively. Mean blood loss was 326.6 ± 278.0 ml in the main group and 855.1 ± 512.0 ml in the comparative one. In the main group no one patient required substitution hemotransfusion, while in 13 patients from the comparative group donor erythrocytic mass and/or fresh-frozen plasma were used to eliminate the deficit of blood components. Intensity of pain syndrome in the zone of surgical intervention by visual analog scale in the main group was lower than in comparative group. In the main and comparative groups the duration of hospitalization made up 6.1 ± 2.7 and 9.7 ± 3.7 bed days, respectively. In no one patient from the main group complications in the zone of operative wound were noted. Three patients from the comparative group required secondary debridement and in 1 patient early deep operative wound suppuration was observed. Application of low invasive surgical techniques for the treatment of patients with degenerative lumbar spine lesions enabled to perform radical surgical treatment with minimal iatrogenic injury. The method possessed indubitable advantages over the conventional open operations especially intraoperatively and in early postoperative period.

The objective: to assess the effect of parenteral viral hepatitis on the manifestations of respiratory tuberculosis and the nature of surgical interventions for tuberculosis.Subjects and methods. An ambispective observational study was conducted with a continuous sampling of 475 respiratory tuberculosis patients over 18 years old who underwent surgical interventions. The patients are divided into two groups: the group of RTB+PVH consisted of 92 patients with concurrent respiratory tuberculosis and chronic parenteral viral hepatitis; the group of RTB included 383 patients with respiratory tuberculosis and no parenteral viral hepatitis.Results. It was found that compared with RTB group, in RTB+PVH group (regardless of the type of hepatitis virus), a chronic course of tuberculosis was registered significantly more often (42.4%; p = 0.005; OS = 2.0); more often bacillary excretion was documented (68.5%; p = 0.035; OR = 1.7), including those with multiple and extensive drug resistance (52.4% of cases with positive sputum tests, p = 0.048; OR = 1.8). Radical (69.6%; p = 0.05; OS = 1.7) and small-scale surgical interventions (64.1%; p = 0.037; OS = 1.8) were significantly less frequently performed in RTB+PVH patients; and such patients often developed postoperative complications (8.7%; p = 0.009; OS = 2.9).

The aim of the work was to improve the results of surgical treatment of complicated forms of chronic pancreatitis. Materials and methods: The results of surgical treatment of 181 patients with complicated forms of chronic pancreatitis have been analyzed. All these patients were treated in surgical clinic of 2 nd medical faculty of National Pyrogov Memorial Medical University in Vinnytsya. Results: It is possible preoperative indirectly assess the severity of fibro- degenerative changes in pancreas, that includes 1 – the definition of pain type; 2 – CT or MRI (Marseilles- Rome classification); 3 – assessment of the stage of chronic pancreatitis (Büchler classification); 4 – patient's nutrition status and preoperative differential diagnosis with pancreatic cancer; 5 – assessment of the fibrosis severity (elastomers). The key point in treatment depended on intraoperative examination: detection of strictures of the main pancreatic duct (pacemaker of chronic pancreatitis); the tissue pressure resistance to the liquid, which is the maximum value> 200 mmHg, in the region of stricture and falls in other parts of the pancreas; pressure in the main pancreas duct, which rises only in 59.5% of patients. The head of the pancreas was involved in the pathological process in 83.8%, in 16.2% it was isolated in the isthmus or the body and tail of the pancreas. In general, the distal pancreas was involved in 37.8%. At computer morphometry of histological samples, the area of connective tissue fields reached 81.4 ± 6.62%, preserved exocrine part in 4.87 ± 1.62%, endocrine – 1.92 ± 0.12%, total area of ducts – 6 , 47 ± 1.12%. Conclusions: The combined Frey-Izbickiy local resection provides a wide excision of the pacemaker (stricture) of chronic pancreatitis. In case of extrapancreatic complications or repeated surgical interventions on the pancreas due to chronic pancreatitis, this effect can be achieved by pancreatoduodenal resection.

The aim: To conduct an analysis of the complex treatment of severe forms of rectal abscesses complicated by NF. Materials and methods: The results of treatment in 471 patients with deep forms of RA was performed. In 38(8%) the spread of the process and rotten-necrotic affection of the perineal fascia. Patients were treated at the surgical clinic of the medical faculty №2, VNPMMU, and Vinnytsya Clinical Emergency Hospital in the period from 2010-2018. Results: Total lethality 8(1,7%). Mortality in GF was 8(19,5%). It is worth noting the reduction of the treatment duration against the background of the modern technologies usage in the period from 2016 to 12 days in relation to the total figure of 15 days. Conclusions: Early surgical treatment, adequate necrectomy, fasciotomy and antibacterial therapy stop the necrotic process. The active aspiration reduces the timing of wound cleansing and further ensures the accelerated implementation of reconstructive surgical interventions.

The role of ischemic-duodenal insufficiency (IDI) in spontaneous termination of pregnancy has not been fully elucidated. The development of various modifications of the surgical treatment of IDI is of great importance, which has led to a very wide use of surgical interventions on the cervix, including "prophylactic" interventions. The application of a circular suture to the cervix is appropriate only in cases where there is an organic variant of this pathology. Differential diagnosis of organic and functional IDI in pregnancy is difficult.
