The formation of secondary cataracts in patients with high-grade myopia remains the main cause of vision loss in the long-term postoperative period. Taking this into account, a soft model of posterior chamber «reverse» IOL was developed in the Fyodorov Eye Microsurgery Federal State Institution, Moscow, which allows reducing the development of secondary cataracts. Purpose. Comparative analysis the clinical and functional results of implantation of «reverse M and M1» IOL in patients with high myopia in the long-term follow-up. Materials and methods. Clinical studies were conducted on 140 eyes of 97 patients with high-grade myopia aged from 42 to 83 years (on average, 64.24±0.79 years) after phacoemulsification cataract (FEC) with IOL implantation in high-grade myopia. The main group consisted of 57 eyes of 40 patients who were implanted with «reverse-M1» IOL, the control group-83 eyes of 57 patients who were implanted with «reverse-M» IOL. Visual acuity before surgery without correction in any patient did not exceed 0.01, and with the maximum correction was no more than 0.2 (80%). The follow-up period was up to 5 years. Results. Visual functions in the majority of patients increased and remained stable throughout the postoperative period, amounting to 0.55+0.04 in the main group, and 0.54+0.03 in the control group. In the late postoperative period, dissection of the posterior lens capsule with «reverse-M» IOL was performed in 11 eyes of 13 patients (13.2%), in the main group, YAG laser dissection of the posterior capsule was required in 2 patients with 3 eyes (5.3%). Conclusions. Implantation of a «reverse-M1» IOL is safe, predictable and allows you getting less PCO formation compare with «reverse-M» IOL in the long-term follow-up in patients with high myopia. Keywords: phacoemulsification cataract, implantation of «reverse» IOL, high myopia.

AIM: to assess the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic elective colon resections for diverticular disease.PATIENTS AND METHODS: a retrospective non-randomized study included 38 patients with elective colon resection for diverticular disease. Twentysix underwent laparoscopic resections (main group), 12 – open resections (controls). The indications for surgery were: chronic diverticulitis, pericolic abdominal mass, external and internal colon fistulas and stricture of the colon. RESULTS: operation time was the same in the control group (167.1±73.3 vs 129.9±43.7 min,p=0.06). Thirty-three (86.8%) resections were performed with a colorectal anastomosis and 5 (13.2%) obstructive resections of the sigmoid colon. In the main group, the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) was divided at the origin in 4 (15.4%) cases, in the control group – in 6 (50%) (p=0.045). The anastomotic leakage in the main group was in 3 (11.5%) patients, in the control group – in 1 (8.3%)(p=1.0). The postoperative period was significantly shorter in the main group compared with the controls(9.3±2.8 vs 13.4±5.1 days, p=0.003). After laparoscopic procedures, narcotic analgesics were used in 3 (11.5%) cases, after conventional – in 8 (66.7%) (p=0.001).CONCLUSION: laparoscopic approach is comparable to the conventional onein operative timeand postoperative morbidity. Laparoscopic approach is associated with a significantly less postoperative pain syndrome and a shorter postoperative period, more often allows to preserve the IMA as well.

Introduction. Glaucoma is one of the most significant eye diseases. It is often diagnosed, not always amenable to therapy, and can lead to a complete loss of visual functions. In recent years, the method of osteopathic correction has become widespread as one of the effective methods of treatment and rehabilitation of patients with pathologies of various body systems. In the pathogenesis of glaucoma, it is customary to distinguish a dystrophic concept, which considers primary open-angle glaucoma as a result of dystrophic changes in the connective tissue, as well as in the endothelial lining of the trabeculae and Schlemm′s canal, especially destructive changes in mitochondria and the alteration of their functional activity. A vascular concept is also distinguished. According to this concept, the central link in the pathogenesis of glaucoma is circulatory disorder in the ciliary vessels, ocular artery, and major vessels of the head and neck, it can be assumed that osteopathic correction in the treatment of patients with open-angle glaucoma will be pathogenetically substantiated and will have a positive effect on intraocular pressure and trophicity of the optic nerve. The goal of research — to study the influence of in osteopathic correction on the nature of unoperated glaucoma (stage IIA) and to substantiate the possibility of using osteopathic correction in the complex treatment of patients with this pathology.Materials and methods. A prospective controlled randomized study was conducted at 52 city polyclinics, branch 3, Moscow, from January 2018 to January 2019. 40 patients (70 eyes) aged 50 to 75 years with primary open-angle glaucoma IIA stage were examined. At this stage of the disease, patients most often seek medical care and the issue of conservative management is primarily considered. All patients were divided into two groups of 20 people: the main group and the control group. The treatment in the main group included hypotensive drug therapy and osteopathic correction. Patients of the control group received only drug therapy. All patients underwent ophthalmic (visometry, tonometry, perimetry) and osteopathic examination twice: before the treatment and after 3 months.Results. For patients with primary open-angle IIA non-operated glaucoma, regional (most often regions of the head, neck, dura mater) and local (abdominal diaphragm, iliac bones, hip and knee joints) somatic dysfunctions were the most typical. In the main group a statistically significant decrease in the frequency and severity of dysfunctions at all levels was stated. Also, in patients receiving osteopathic correction, a significant decrease in the level of intraocular pressure and perimetric indices was noted. In patients of the control group, no reliable changes in these indicators were obtained.Conclusion. The results obtained indicate that osteopathic correction is clinically effective in the complex treatment of patients with primary open-angle II A glaucoma.

Relevance: Modern endonasal surgery allows to remove polyps from all affected paranasal sinuses, following the principles of minimal invasiveness. Minimal traumatic of surgical intervention gives the best results, accompanied by less progression of the disease. Minimal invasiveness of surgical intervention and its obligatory combination with postoperative medical treatment are common practice in many countries. One of the drugs that actively effect the restoration of the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses in the early postoperative period is Nazomer, which includes sodium hyaluronate and dexpanthenol in saline solution. The purpose of the study is to investigate the effectiveness of the drug Nazomer in patients with polyposis rhinosinusitis after endoscopic polyposynosotomy. Results and discussion: The main group consisted of 30 patients with polyposis rhinosinusitis, who were prescribed Nasomer in addition to standard treatment in the postoperative period. The control group included 30 patients who underwent standard treatment in the postoperative period. As criteria for clinical efficacy, data from endoscopic examination of the nasal cavity and indicators of anterior rhinomatometry, measured by the «Optimus» device, were selected. In the main group, the index of nasal breathing according to rhinomatometry was better than the results of patients in the control group on the 3rd and 5th day of the postoperative period by 26% and 24%, respectively. Conclusion: The use of the drug Nazomer in the postoperative period in patients with polyposis rhinosinusitis contributes to more active restoration of respiratory function of the nasal cavity compared with the control group, according to rhinomatometry, up to 26%. Based on the results obtained, the drug Nazomer is an effective anti-inflammatory and regenerative agent in the postoperative period in patients with polyposis rhinosinusitis.

Aim. To assess the effectiveness of the use of the antiviral drug enisamium iodide in the complex treatment of acute respiratory viral infections (ARVI) caused by various pathogens in routine clinical practice. Materials and methods. А prospective randomized study included 134 patients who were treated in the epidemic season of influenza and ARVI in 20182019. All patients were examined for the presence of influenza A and B viruses, respiratory syncytial virus, human metapneumovirus, parainfluenza virus, coronaviruses, rhinoviruses, adenoviruses in nasopharyngeal swabs by PCR. Patients of the main group received enisamium iodide along with symptomatic therapy, the control group received only symptomatic therapy. The primary parameter of the effectiveness of therapy was evaluated on the scale of the general severity of the manifestations of ARVI (Total Symptom Score TSS) from the 2nd to the 4th day and by the secondary criteria of effectiveness: assessment of the duration of ARVI, the severity of fever, the proportion of patients with normal body temperature, the duration of the main clinical symptoms of acute respiratory viral infections, the proportion of patients in whom complications requiring antibiotics were noted, the dynamics of interferon status on the 6th day. To conduct a statistical analysis, depending on the efficiency parameter, the ANCOVA method with a fixed group factor and an initial score on the TSS severity scale was used as covariates, a criterion for comparing quantitative indicators in two independent groups. Results. According to the results of the analysis of the primary efficacy parameter, the median (interquartile range) of the average score on the scale of the general severity of ARVI manifestations in the main group was 4.33 (3.675.83), in the comparison group 6.00 (4.677.25; p0.001). The duration of systemic and local manifestations of acute respiratory viral infections was statistically significantly less in the main group (p=0.002 and p=0.019, respectively). Prescription of additional therapy was required in 2 (2.9%) patients of the main group (patients taking enisamium iodide), compared with 8 (11.9%) patients in the control group. Serum levels of interferon  and interferon  on the last day of treatment were statistically significantly higher in patients of the main group compared with the control group (p0.001). Treatment (excellent) was evaluated by 42 (62.7%) patients, while in the control group only 17 (25.8%) patients gave similar ratings. Both patients (p0.001) and doctors (p0.002) rated therapy tolerance better in the study group. Conclusion. The results confirmed the safety and effectiveness of enisamium iodide as a treatment for ARVI and influenza. The antiviral, interferonogenic and anti-inflammatory properties of the drug are involved in the formation of an antiviral response and reduce the risk of complications, which makes it possible to reduce the number of symptomatic agents used.

Nearly half of patients undergoing low anterior rectal cancer resection have a functional sequelae after straight coloanal or low colorectal anastomoses (SA), including low anterior rectal resection syndrome, which combines stool fragmentation, urge incontinence, and incontinence. SA are responsible for anastomotic leakage rates of 0 to 29.2 per cent. Adding a colonic reservoir improves the functional results while reducing anastomotic complications. These colonic reservoir techniques include the colonic J pouch (CJP), transverse coloplasty (TC), and side-to-end anastomosis (STEA) procedures. The aim of this literature review was to compare the functional outcomes of these three techniques from a high level of evidence. CJP with a 4- to 6-cm reservoir is a good surgical option because it reduces functional impairments during the first year, and probably up to 5 years, but is not always feasible. TC appears to perform as well as CJP, is achievable in over 95 per cent of patients, but still with some doubts about a higher anastomotic leakage rate and worse functional outcomes. STEA appears equivalent to CJP in terms of morbidity and even better functional outcomes. STEA, with a terminal side segment size of 3 cm, is feasible in the majority of nonobese patients, combines good functional results, has low anastomotic leakage rates, and is easy to complete.

AbstractSubvastus approach preserves the quadriceps mechanism and may lead to improved early functional outcomes as compared with a parapatellar approach in primary knee arthroplasty. We performed a prospective randomized study to test the hypothesis if subvastus approach improves patient- and physician-reported outcomes in navigated sequential bilateral knee arthroplasty when compared with the standard parapatellar approach. A total of 93 patients were allotted in each group after power analysis and randomization done by computer-generated sequence: group S by subvastus approach and control group P by parapatellar approach. The patient's ability to walk without an aid, range of motion, blood loss, tourniquet time, complications, Knee Society Score (KSS), Knee Society Functional Score (KSFS), Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), High Flexion Knee Score (HFKS), and visual analog scale (VAS) for pain were recorded preoperatively and postoperatively at 2 and 6 weeks and 3, 6, and 12 months. Final follow-up was done at 2 years. There was no statistical difference in the patient's ability to achieve a straight leg raise (p = 0.88), walk without an aid (p = 0.25), leaving pain medication (p = 0.48), and mean duration of hospital stay (p = 0.58) between both groups. There was no difference in KSS, FS, KOOS, WOMAC, HFKS, and VAS at 2 weeks and later follow-ups. There was no significant difference in range of motion or lateral retinacular release in both groups. Blood loss was significantly less in group S (p < 0.05), but there was a higher rate of proximal wound dehiscence and delayed healing in subvastus group (p = 0.03). Subvastus approach does not improve patient- and physician-reported outcome measures except blood loss in computer-navigated sequential bilateral knee arthroplasty and has an increased incidence of wound healing problems. The Level of evidence for the study is I.

AbstractTreatment of benign vocal fold lesions by the use of the CO2laser is discussed critically. The aim of the present prospective randomized study was to examine the post-operative functional results after laser phonosurgery in comparison to those after cold phonosurgery. In total, 44 patients with benign vocal fold lesions underwent surgery. Conventional cold phonosurgery was performed in 23 patients, and 21 patients were treated by laser phonosurgery. To determine vocal function, examinations were performed preoperatively, on the second post-operative day, and one and four months post-operatively. The examinations included direct videolaryngoscopy, determination of maximal phonation, speech voice field as well as singing voice field. The results four months after surgery showed an improvement of vocal function in both treatment groups in comparison to the pre-operative findings. The improvement is only statistically significant after cold surgery.

Purpose. Im proving the results of treatment of patients with ureteral stones and reducing the dam aging effects of contact lithotripsy.Materials and methods. In this study, 48 patients were examined aged 20 to 63 years. All patients admitted to the urology department with diagnoses: urolithiasis, calculus of the ureter. In all cases contact ureterolithotripsy with stenting of the upper urinary tract were performed. The patients were divided into two groups: main and control. 25 patients (52 .1%) were included into the main group, which in the postoperative period, we used low-level laser therapy (L-therapy). 23 patients were included in a control group (47.9%) who did not receive low-laser therapy. Laboratory tests and ultrasound with Doppler renal blood vessels scan were performed on admission, on the first day after the operation and on the 5-th day of hospitalization. Low-intensity laser therapy was performed within 5 days after contact ureterolithotripsy on projection of placement of stone and kidney projection by series for 5 minutes.Results. All patients admitted to the hospital, were spared from ureteral stones. In the main group during the treatment with L-therapy a decrease in the level of beta-2 microglobulin to normal was observed. (4.8 ± 0.1 mg/l on the first day. On the 5th day 2 .3 + 0.1 mg/l). In the control group during the treatment without the use of L-therapy, the average level of beta-2 microglobulin decreased but did not reach normal levels. (5.5 ± 0.1 mg/l on the first day. On the 5th day 3,2 ±0, l mg/l).Resistance index in the study group decreased compared to the control. In the control group, cases of acute pyelonephritis were observed. The average hospital stay for patients of the main group (6 days) was less than in the control group (6 .5 + days).Conclusion. The use of laser therapy in the treatment of patients who did undergo ureterolithotripsy can reduce the length of stay of the patient in the hospital and reduce the risk of acute pyelonephritis in the postoperative period. Also it can reduce the damaging effect of lithotripsy on the renal tissues.
