Study of the ursosan therapy influence on the efficiency of the surgical resolution of cholestasis in the early postoperative period on the bile-excreting tracts. 19 healthy people and 24 patients with organic abnormalities of the drainage function of the bile ducts are examined. The analysis of the clinical, laboratory and instrumental criteria of cholestasis is carried out in the tested groups before and after ursosan’s therapy and the surgical treatment. Ursosan’s prescription leads to 3 times increase of cases of full regression of clinicolaboratory markers of cholestasis during the first week of the surgery on the bile ducts. The ursosan’s therapy should be prolonged more than 8 days after operative restoration of the bile passage on the bile ducts considering high level of lithogenic factors of C bile on these patients as compared to healthy people. The criteria of the completed ursosan’s therapy can be the normalization of the conjugated bilirubin level in the serum and or relief of slagging effect according to the ultrasound results of the bile ducts and a gallbladder.

AbstractThe breast cancer is the most common cancer in women, both in Poland and in the world. Consequences entail a disruption in the physical, psychological and social functioning.was to assess the acceptance of illness by patients treated for breast cancer in the early postoperative period.The research was conducted on the group of 100 consecutive patients aged 32-80 years (median 56 years) who underwent surgery for breast cancer in the Centre of Oncology in Bydgoszcz w 2014 roku. 68 of women had mastectomy, 32 of women had conservative surgery. Polling was conducted in the early period after surgery. The original questionnaire containing closed questions the scale of acceptance of the disease (AIS) as well as mental adaptation to cancer (Mini-Mac) was used in the study.38% of patients had high acceptance of the disease, 48% averageand 14% had low acceptance. Patients after conservative surgery had a higher average values for the mental strategies to cope with the disease, for the fighting spirit (23.1), helplessness and hopelessness (13.5), positive revaluation (23), the patients had a lower average (16.5) in the strategy to absorb anxiety. Patients after conservative surgery had a higher average for constructive style (2.6) but lower for destructive style (1.5). High level of mental coping with the disease was observed in 53%of patients with constructive style and 4% of patients with destructive style. While, a low level of mental coping with the dosease was observed in 5% of patients with constructive style and 46% of patients with destructive style.Almost half of women after mastectomy or conservative surgery had an average acceptance of the disease. The disease was accepted best by educated women living in the cities, white-collar workers with a good economic situation. The following factors were affected the better management of the disease, in order: age, education, current occupation and economic situation, while the type of surgery did not affect better management. More than half of women, regardless of the type of surgery reflected the high level of constructive style.

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 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.

Prolonged Recovery

The occurrence of cognitive disorders is a common problem after surgery. The degree of worsening of cognitive functions after surgery and anesthesia has a significant impact on the patient's health and is significantly associated with prolonged recovery in the hospital, increased morbidity and delayed functional recovery. The aim of the study was to increase the effectiveness of the diagnosis of moderate cognitive impairment and to determine its gender and age characteristics in patients before and after cardiac surgery in the early postoperative period (3 and 7 days). We examined 56 patients who underwent cardiac surgery for coronary heart disease in 37 (66.1 %) and valvular heart defects in 19 (33.9 %) patients. Assessment of cognitive functions was performed before surgery, on the 3rd and 7th day of the postoperative period. Testing was performed using the Montreal Cognitive Test. Statistical processing of the obtained data was performed on a personal computer using the statistical software package SPSS 12.0 for Windows using parametric and non-parametric methods. It was found that presence of cognitive disorders before surgery was registered in 37 (66.1 %) patients, mostly among the age of group of 60-74 years and had no gender difference. It was found that in the early postoperative period there is a significant worsening of cognitive functions in patients after cardiac surgery on 3rd day – in 45 (80.4 %), on 7th day – in 44 (78.6 %) patients, respectively.

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.

Gynecologic Patients

The objective: tactics definition postoperative period at surgical treatment of gynecologic patients with extragenital pathology. Patients and methods. Research included 240 patients who stayed on treatment in a hospital and were operative concerning diseases of internal genitals laparotomical and laparoscopic accesses. All patients had an extragenital pathology. Depending on operation access all patients were divided into two groups. The main group was made by 120 patients who were operated by laparoscopic access. The group of comparison was made by 120 patients whom was operative laparotomical access. Everything patients carried out a clinical-laboratory assessment of a current of the postoperative period. Results. Results of the conducted researches testify that at the compensated accompanying cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases, a diabetes mellitus and an obesity at gynecologic patients at identical gynecologic and extragenital pathology laparoscopic access is more preferable since takes less time, is less travmatical and morbid, is accompanied by a smaller hemorrhage in comparison with the laparotomical. Aftertreatment after laparoscopic operations takes less time that is bound to existence of less expressed pain syndrome, lack of disturbance of function of an intestine, faster restoration of a physical activity and thereof in the smaller postoperative afternoon. At the same time rising of intra abdominal pressure and the provision of Trendelenburg negatively affect hemodynamic indicators at patients with cardiovascular diseases though it doesn’t lead to a decompensation of activity of cardiovascular system. Conclusion. Tactics of maintaining the postoperative period at gynecologic patients with extragenital pathology depends on character of a somatic case rate, option quick to access, a hemorrhage and results of clinical-laboratory inspection. Key words: gynecologic operations, laparotomy, laparoscopy, postpoerative period.

Stable Fixation

Original method of stressed osteosynthesis for the treatment of proximal humerus is proposed. Primary tension of Y-shaped pin fixative and secondary tension that is created at its intramedullar insertion and blocking enable to achieve stable fixation of fragments without inflicting additional intraoperative injury in patients of any age and independently of their general condition. Preservation of blood supple in fragments, low traumatic osteosynthesis, and possibility of patients' early rehabilitation define the prospective of this technique for the treatment of patients with fractures on the background of osteoporosis. The importance of drug therapy for osteoporosis in the early postoperative period is shown. Experience in treatment of 62 patients aged from 23 to 78 years is presented. Control group included 30 patients with similar fractures who were treated using osteosynthesis. In the main group good results were achieved in 82.3% of patients, satisfactory - in 17.7%, no poor results were observed. In control group good results made up 40%, satisfactory - 56.7%, poor 0 3.3%.
