Surgical outcomes were analyzed for 108 patients with infectious complications developed at different terms after large joints arthroplasty. When complications develop in the early postoperative period than independently of the process depth and in stable implant components radical surgical debridement of the inflammation focus is indicated. In the rest of cases the removal of all implant components with subsequent either joint arthrodesis or revision arthroplasty using spacers of different modifications should be performed. We consider spacer application to be a method of choice as it enables to preserve extremity function and to perform revision arthroplasty in future.

Studies of surgical outcomes in multifocal epilepsy patients showed them to depend on epileptic foci sites in two groups of the diseased according to J. Engel scale (1993): 92 early postoperative period patients (group 1), and 30 late one patients (group 2). Of 92 group 1 patients unilateral cortical epileptic foci were diagnosed in 62 (51.7%), bitemporal ones in 30 (20.0%) patients. Of 30 group 2 patients – unilateral cortical in 17 (42.5%), and bitemporal in 13 (32.5%) patients. In group 1 remission of the seizures and decrease of their frequency over 80.0% was achieved in 80.4% of the patients, in group 2 – decrease of seizure frequency over 50.0% in 67.7%, and recurrent seizures in 26.7% of the patients.

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.

Object The purpose of this study was to evaluate the incidence of seizures or epileptiform abnormalities on electroencephalography (EEG) studies in patients undergoing surgical treatment for acute subdural hematoma (SDH). Methods This was a retrospective study of 134 consecutive patients with acute or acute-on-chronic SDH who underwent surgical treatment at the authors' institution between January 2004 and July 2008. Detailed information was collected regarding baseline clinical data (including preexistent functional impairment); Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) sum scores before and 24 hours after surgery; presence of clinical seizures; EEG findings; and functional outcome on discharge and up to the 6-month follow-up. All brain CT scans were reviewed to calculate SDH volume and midline shift. The Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) score was used for functional assessment, and GOS scores of 1–3 were considered indicative of poor outcome. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify statistical associations. Results Clinical seizures or epileptiform changes on EEG were observed during the acute postoperative period in 33 patients (25%). Preexistent functional impairment and seizures/epileptiform EEG findings after surgery were independently associated with poor functional outcome upon hospital discharge (p < 0.001 for both). Preexistent functional impairment (p < 0.001), lower GCS score before surgery (p = 0.04), and lower GCS score 24 hours after surgery (p = 0.007), but not seizures/epileptiform EEG findings, were independently associated with poor functional recovery at 1- to 6-month follow-up evaluations. Seizures/epileptiform EEG findings had a strong association with lower GCS scores after surgery (p = 0.01), and they were more common in patients who underwent evacuation by craniotomy (p = 0.02). Conclusions Epileptic complications are common after acute SDH evacuation, and should be suspected in patients with an unanticipated depressed level of consciousness after surgery. Seizures worsen early functional outcome, but delayed favorable recovery is possible. Therefore, one should be cautious when discussing prognosis in the early postoperative period of patients with epileptic complications.

Summary. Goal. To analyze the results of surgical treatment of carotid stenosis in patients with coronary heart disease in order to prevent ischemic stroke. Materials and methods. The analysis included 18 patients treated in the SI «V. T. Zaitseva IGUS of NAMNU» from 2017 to 2019 in combined atherosclerotic lesions of the coronary and carotid arteries which evaluated the reserve brain. Results and discussion. All patients with two-stage treatment of the first and second groups were discharged in a stable state, one had a clinic of transient ischemic attack in the postoperative period. Conclusions. Simultaneous operations are advisable in patients with a reduced reserve of both coronary and cerebral circulation. The risk of developing cerebral and cardiac postoperative complications is comparable with the results of phased operations, reducing the length of hospital stay of the patient. The results of the hypoxic test serve as an additional criterion for the decision to impose an internal intra-arterial shunt. This allows you to reduce the time of the main stage of carotid endarterectomy and to avoid additional possible complications in the early postoperative period.

Aim. To define tactics of treatment of patients with infecting of synthetic patch after carotid endarterectomia(CEA). Materials and methods. As a result of treatment of 123 patients with hemodynamically meaningful stenosises of carotids and/or presence of embolic plate in SI «Zaycev V.T. IGUS of NAMSU» from 2014 for 2018 51 CEA was executed with in seaming of patch. In 5 cases autove in used as a patch, at 46 patients were used synthetic patch. As a rule, this group was entered by patients with extensive stenosis (more than 2 cm) - 33 patients, patients with insufficient retrograde pressure and/or presence of neurological deficit in the period of crossclamping of internal carotid — 18 patients. Results. The direct results of operation we estimated complex on the basis of degree of change of clinical status and presence of postoperative complications. At 43 patients in a postoperative period are not educed complications. At 8 patients an early postoperative period was complicated by bleeding from a patch, that demanded the repeated operative treatment. In two cases through 2 and 2,5 year, infecting of synthetic patch, that demanded urgent operative intervention as excision of synthetic patch and inseaming of autovein patch, was educed. To the patients control of passableness of carotids was executed through every 6 months Hemodynamically meaningful Restenilооm was observed in 3 cases at this group of patients. Conclusion. At hemodynamically meaningful extensive stenosises of carotids and insufficient level of retrograde arteriotony it is necessary to execute CEA with inseaming of synthetic patch. In case of the repeated interference on a carotid careful hemostasis and antibacterial therapy allows to bring down the level of infectious complications.

Aim. To compare secondary neurological outcomes in patients with brachiocephalic and coronary artery disease in the early postoperative period after different surgical treatment strategies (simultaneous and hybrid).Methods. Secondary neurological outcomes were evaluated in 43 patients with coronary and brachiocephalic artery disease in the early postoperative period after (1) carotid endarterectomy and on-pump coronary artery bypass surgery; (2) percutaneous coronary intervention and carotid endarterectomy. Demographic, clinical, instrumental data were collected. Neuropsychological assessment was performed using the Mini-Mental State Examination and Frontal Assessment Battery. Memory, attention and neurodynamics were measured using the “Status-PF” software at days 2–3 before the surgery and at days 5–7 after it. The presence of postoperative cognitive dysfunction was estimated on the basis of criteria defined as a 20% decline on 20% of the tests. Statistical analysis was performed using the software package “Statistica 10.0”.Results. Patients who underwent hybrid intervention demonstrated improved attention and memory in the early postoperative period. Complex visual-motor reaction significantly increased in patients after simultaneous surgery. Attention differed significantly in both groups. Thus, patients from the hybrid group processed more characters per 1 and 4 minutes while completing the Bourdon proof reading test. The total number of processed characters prevailed in the hybrid group. Cognitive processing speed was higher in the hybrid group according to the brain performance test. The incidence of early postoperative cognitive dysfunction was 60% in patients after simultaneous surgery and 11% in patients after hybrid surgery (p = 0.006, OR±SE 12.5±3.2).Conclusion. Hybrid intervention has shown its superiority over simultaneous intervention in terms of low rate of early cognitive impairment, thereby confirming the necessity to take into account the obtained results while selecting the optimal surgical treatment in patients with coronary and brachiocephalic artery disease present with cognitive deficits at baseline.
