Diagnosis of congenital toxoplasmosis is one of the most pressing and complex problems of perinatology. Difficulties in the interpretation of serological tests, the lack of clearly defined steps in the detection of seroconversion in women leads to late diagnosis and the development of irreversible changes and severe complications from the newborn. When infected during pregnancy, the disease is extremely unfavorable for the fetus and can lead to miscarriage, stillbirth, intrauterine growth retardation or the formation of birth defects. This article presents a review of the literature on the modern diagnosis of congenital toxoplasmosis and presents his own clinical case of diagnostic search for this infectious disease in the newborn. Practitioners should keep in mind prenatal ultrasound markers, the main manifestations of the disease and methods of diagnosis, because timely recognized and confirmed congenital toxoplasmosis will have the best long-term treatment results and prognosis in the newborn.

Series Of Experiments

To elaborate a method of quantitative evaluation of instable spiral tibial bones fractures as the basis for differential approach to secondary displacement prevention, x-rays of 312 patients were analyzed and a series of experiments to study spiral fractures peculiarities was performed. The factors responsible for the instable pattern of spiral tibial fractures were detected. Quantitative index of the risk of secondary displacement was calculated and preventive measures were elaborated on their basis. Proposed recommendations on secondary displacement prevention were used as a basis for the treatment of 83 patients using Matsukidis - Shevtsov apparatus. Long-term treatment results were studied in 59 (71%) patients. Excellent and good results were achieved in 51 (86.5%) and 8 (13.5%) patients, respectively. Neither satisfactory nor poor results were observed.

SummaryThe medical records of 12 dogs with osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the medial trochlear ridge of the talus were reviewed. Long-term treatment results were obtained from client questionnaires and clinical and radiographic re-examinations. After a mean follow-up time of 52 months, only three of 12 dogs treated for OCD of the medial trochlear ridge of the talus had regained full function of the affected joint(s). In all cases available for radiographic re-examination, osteoarthritic changes had progressed. The medial approach to the hock joint by osteotomy of the medial malleolus was associated with a high complication rate.A meta-analysis of 38 cases (55 joints) of previous clinical studies and the present clinical study indicated that the Labrador Retriever and the Rottweiler were the most frequently affected breeds. Seventy-five percent of the affected Labrador Retrievers and Bull Terriers had bilateral involvement. The data suggested that in young dogs with an acute lameness, due to osteochondritis dissecans of the medial trochlear ridge in the talus, treatment resulted in 18% of the affected limbs in a normal limb function, in 27% in an intermittent lameness and in 55% in a chronic lameness. In dogs with a more chronic lameness, treatment results were better and approximately 40% of the affected limbs returned to normal function, while chronic lameness following treatment was unusual. In dogs older than a year at the time of treatment initiation, treatment became less successful because of the presence of severe osteoarthritic changes before treatment. Only 24% obtained normal limb function following treatment, while in 42% of the dogs treatment resulted in a chronic lameness.
