One of the operation about the median postoperative ventral hernia is retromuscular plastic Stoppa-Rives. For large defects closure rear sheets of the sheaths of direct muscles associated with the eruption of the seams. The authors propose a new hypotensive aponeurotic suture located opposite each other of the chains of stitches oriented in the transverse direction. This seam is used in 14 patients. All patients were able to take in rear sheets of the sheaths of direct muscles under the control of intra-abdominal pressure. During the early postoperative period without complications. Patients viewed through 6-20 months. Recurrence was not detected. It is concluded that the use of this seam is safe and effective closure of the fascia when alloplasty.

Background: Loss of continuity of abdominal wall significantly affects the functions of protection of viscera, postural stabilization, and maintenance of intra-abdominal pressure. The newer understanding of abdominal wall reconstruction (AWR) aims at restoring abdominal wall anatomy and function, instead of simply patching the defect. We want to showcase the changing trends and results in hernia repair at a Medical Institution.Methods: This is an observational retrospective study conducted in RRMCH, Bengaluru from July 2018-2019 including all patients with ventral hernia undergoing the specified hernia repairs.Results: A total of 54 patients with ventral hernias undergoing routine hernia repairs/AWR surgeries were retrospectively analysed. The overall mean age was 46.62±12.44 year. Majority subjects were females (n=37; 68.5%), and overweight (Mean BMI=28.07±3.01/m2). 14 patients (25.92%), all males, had history of tobacco consumption. There were 38 (70.37%) primary ventral hernias and 7 recurrent hernias. Overall mean defect size was 10.2±0.4 cm. Most frequently performed was open retro rectus Hernioplasty (n=18; 33.33%), followed by open Preperitoneal Hernioplasty (n=17; 31.48%), laparoscopic intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) (n=16; 29.62%) and open transversus abdominis release (TAR) (n=3; 5.5%). On statistical analysis, it was found that Open repairs had higher post-operative pain (p=0.0005), longer hospitalization (p=0.0002) and higher incidence of surgical site events (p=0.0134) when compared to Laparoscopic repairs.Conclusion: As known already, minimally invasive techniques of hernia surgeries are shown to have acceptable outcomes when compared to radical open surgeries. Newer techniques of AWR are being employed to routine cases in larger numbers, and not just for complex reconstruction, at most centres with acceptable outcomes.

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.

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.

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.

Aim. To study the results of simultaneous abdominoplasty and laparoscopic ventral hernia alloplasty in patients with obesity. Material and Methods. Simultaneous adbominoplasty and laparoscopic hernioplasty for ventral hernias were performed in 31 patients. The mean age of the patients was 53.7±6.5 (95% CI 51.3; 56.0). All patients were diagnosed as obese (body mass index more than 30 kg/m2). Incisional hernia was the main indication for surgery in the majority of patients - 20 (64,5%); in 11 (35%) cases a primary hernia of median localization was detected. Immediate and long-term results of surgical interventions were studied. Results and Discussion. In the postoperative period after drainage removal accumulations of fluid (seromas) were revealed in 9 (29%) patients using ultrasound investigation; in 2 cases they were evacuated by puncture. In one case, a marginal necrosis of the skin around the formed umbilicus occurred (healing by secondary tension); in another, lower lobe pneumonia was diagnosed (eliminated by antibiotic therapy). The average length of hospital stay was 7.3±1.4 (95% CI 6.8; 7.9) days, 6-8 days in most cases. Only two patients were hospitalized for more than 8 days due to postoperative complications. No recurrences of hernias were registered at follow-up examination 1-3 years later; good cosmetic results were achieved. Conclusions. In patients with ventral hernias with obesity and fat apron it is advisable to perform simultaneous intervention - abdominoplasty and allogernioplasty. It is advisable to perform alloplasty of ventral hernias with simultaneous abdominoplasty via laparoscopic access according to IPOM technology with the use of mesh endoprosthesis with antiadhesive coating. Simultaneous abdominoplasty causes an increase in the frequency of seromas in the postoperative period, but it does not increase the duration of hospital treatment. Simultaneous surgeries allow achieving good cosmetic results and do not increase the incidence of hernia recurrence.
