Esophageal Stenting

To assess of our study was to analyze the experience of using esophageal stents in dysphagia syndrome. The main questions to which they wanted to get an answer: the formulation of the main indications and contraindications for esophageal stenting; evaluation of the efficiency and feasibility of esophageal stenting with self-expanding metal stents in incurable patients. At the General Surgery Department of the S. M. Kirov Military Medical Academy performed stenting in 78 patients for malignant neoplastic processes and in 2 patients with benign esophageal stricture, who underwent treatment from 2007 to 2020. The patient group included 61 men (76.3%) and 19 women (23.7%). 69 people applied for grade IIIIV dysphagia, 6 had tracheo-esophageal fistulas, and 3 had esophageal-pleural fistulas formed during tumor decay, 2 patients were treated for esophageal burn stricture. The stents of the Korean company M. I. Tech. Installation were performed with short, small diameter endoscopic delivery systems. The onset of feeding, as a rule, began on the next day with satisfactory standing and adequate expansion of the stent, and no displacement. The patient could leave the hospital on the same day. Meals began with the use of water and liquid food with a gradual expansion of the density and consistency of the food. The minimally invasive method for eliminating dysphagia in inaccurate patients is esophageal stenting with self-expanding stents. Esophageal stenting has fewer complications than other invasive surgical techniques for resolving dysphagia. The advantage of palliative treatment of tumor stenoses and fistulas by stenting is to reduce the manifestations of dysphagia, improve the quality and increase the life expectancy of patients (3 figs, bibliography: 15 refs).

To assess the experience of stents application, formulate the main indications and contraindications for the esophageal stenting, prove that the esophageal stenting with self-expandable metal stents is considered as the treatment of choice in incurable patients. Within the period from 2007 to 2018. 78 patients have treated for the cancer of esophagus and gastric cardia, 2 patients with benign esophageal strictures were subjected to stenting at the general surgery department of the S.M. Kirov Military Medical Academy. The group of patients included 53 men and 17 women. 60 patients with dysphagia grade IIIIV have been examined, 6 of them with trachea-esophageal, 2 esophageal-pleural fistulas formed during the tumor disintegration, 2 patients were treated for burn strictures of the esophagus. M. I. Tech's esophageal stents of Korean firm were used. Insertion was carried out by short endoscopic delivery systems of a small diameter. Satisfactory evaluation of the stent state and adequate stent expansion, absence of any misplacement were considered as an indication for starting oral food intake. Patients may be allowed to go home shortly after an esophageal stent procedure (the same day). The first day the patient could use water and foods need to be liquid, moist and soft, in the following days it was possible to increase the density of products. The study found that stenting of the esophagus is a current method of endoscopic surgery, aimed at the expanding and maintaining of the lumen of the esophagus by means of the inserted self-expandable stents. Esophageal stenting possesses by fewer complications unlike other techniques. The role of palliative treatment (for example, stenting) is considered to reduce dysphagia, improve the quality of life and increase life expectancy

Aim. In this work, the authors set out to perform a historical analysis of Nikolay Petrov’s life journey and scientific work, as well as to demonstrate the importance of the Kuban period in his formation as an individual, a scientist and as a founder of domestic medical deontology.Materials and methods. In this study, the authors used archival documents; works of Nikolay Petrov; as well as the following methods: historical-descriptive, comparative-historical, problem-chronological, biographical along with the method of monographic description.Results. The life and professional journey of Nikolay Petrov can be divided into several periods, each of them playing an important role in his formation as an individual and as a scientist. The fi rst period (‘St Petersburg period’) covers his brilliant upbringing, education at the Military Medical Academy in Saint Petersburg, work as a medical resident at the Surgery Department of the Academy, as well as the publication of his first scientific works and the defence of the doctoral thesis in medicine. During the second period (‘abroad period’), Nikolay Petrov completed advanced training at the Pasteur Institute and worked at the clinics of Switzerland, Austria and Germany. The third period (‘teaching period’) covers the time when Nikolay Petrov was simultaneously working as a surgeon and a teacher at the Military Medical Academy; his fundamental works on surgery and oncology were published. The forth ‘military period’ coincided with the years of the First World War when Nikolay Petrov worked as a surgeon at the hospitals of the Russian Red Cross Society while continuing his research. The fifth period (‘Kuban period’) coincided with the years of revolutionary upheavals, civil war and moving to Kuban. In 1917–1922 Nikolay Petrov had to choose between emigration and his motherland. He stayed true to his profession and his homeland. Nikolay Petrov devoted himself to serving the ‘new’ country, actively participated in the organisation of the Kuban Medical University and wrote a number of works on surgery, including the first work on medical deontology in the country. The sixth period is called ‘return to St Petersburg’ where in 1925 Nikolay Petrov organised the Oncology Department at the Mechnikov hospital, which under his guidance became the first research institute for oncology in our country. This period was marked by the recognition of his talent as a doctor and a scientist by the public and government.Conclusion. Nikolay Petrov‘s ethos as a scientist and a doctor was formed under the influence of his challenging life journey, with the Kuban period being a turning point in his life.

The article is dedicated to the 220th anniversary of the founding of the General Surgery Department of the S. M. Kirov Military Medical Academy. During the time the department was headed by famous representatives of surgery of those times. The representatives of the General Surgery Department made a significant contribution to the development of surgery in our country, subsequently being the heads of surgical departments and medical institutions. Historically, the academic disciplines taught at the department were the primary link in the education program in surgery at the academy. Most of the heads of the department had the experience of participating in military campaigns, which is necessary for education at a military university. Traditionally, the department scientific research were devoted to the study of the wound process, wound infection, combat injuries, oncology, vascular and abdominal surgery. At present, there is currently a continuity in the formation of educational and methodological materials for various categories of students, scientific developments on topical problems of surgery have been going on (4 figs, bibliography: 4 refs).

Painless Jaundice

AbstractPainless jaundice is a harbinger of malignant biliary obstruction, with the majority of cases due to pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Despite advances in treatment, including improved surgical techniques and neoadjuvant (preoperative) chemotherapy, long-term survival from pancreatic cancer is rare. This lack of significant improvement in outcomes is believed to be due to multiple reasons, including the advanced stage at diagnosis and lack of an adequate biomarker for screening and early detection, prior to the onset of jaundice or epigastric pain. Close attention is required to select appropriate patients for preoperative biliary decompression, and to prevent morbid complications from biliary drainage procedures, such as pancreatitis and cholangitis. Use of small caliber plastic biliary stents during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography should be minimized, as metal stents have increased area for improved bile flow and a reduced risk of adverse events during neoadjuvant therapy. Efforts are underway by translational scientists, radiologists, oncologists, surgeons, and gastroenterologists to augment lifespan for our patients and to more readily treat this deadly disease. In this review, the authors discuss the rationale and techniques of endoscopic biliary intervention, mainly focusing on malignant biliary obstruction by pancreatic cancer.

Background. Vascularized osteoseptocutaneous radial flap is commonly used in the reconstruction of composite bony and soft tissue defects of the lower third of the face due to the outstanding quality of its cutaneous component. The aim was to evaluate the primary and overall success in the reconstruction of mandibular defects, following war injuries, with vascularized osteoseptocutaneous radial flap. Methods. At the Department of Maxillofacial Surgery of the Military Medical Academy Belgrade, there were eight patients with this kind of defect following war injury, and the mandible was reconstructed with a vascularized osteoseptocutaneous radial flap. Bony compartment of the graft was harvested as up to 11 cm long segment of radial circumference. Results. The localization and structure of the defect, features of a harvested compound graft, the procedure of the reestablishment of the mandibular continuity was presented as well as immediate and late complications during the consolidation period, and the primary successful reconstruction in 87.5% of the patients. Conclusion. The primary and overall success in the mandibular defects reconstruction with a vascularized osteoseptocutaneous radial flap was equal or even better than those presented in the literature on the reconstruction of the similar defects after tumor resections.

In February 2020, the Bulgarian government established the National Operational Headquarters for Combating the COVID-19 Pandemic in Bulgaria. General Ventsislav Mutafchiyski, a military doctor, professor at the Military Medical Academy in Sofia, was appointed as its chairman. This paper presents a case study on the public image of Ventsislav Mutafchiyski, its readings and interpretations by the audience, and the specific fan culture that emerged around his media persona during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in Bulgaria. Placed in the spotlight of the media at the very beginning of the crisis, Mutafchiyski became extremely popular as the public figure most strongly associated with the fight against the spread of the disease in the country. Around his media persona, shaped in the public imagination as a wartime leader, a fan culture has grown with all its characteristic features and dimensions: fans and anti-fans, affirmative and transformative fandom. As a fictional character, Mutafchiyski has appeared in numerous forms of vernacular creativity: poems, songs, material objects, jokes, fake news, conspiracy theories, and memes. In this way, the General has become the main character of Bulgarian pandemic folklore and the focal point of a participatory pandemic.
