Background. The probability of undergoing surgery always predetermines the state of stress in a person; therefore, it is advisable to search for ways to optimize and (or) reduce this unfavourable effect. Objective. To find out the mechanism of vitamin B1 antistress activity during surgery. Material and methods. Metabolism intensity was investigated on donors’ blood lysates (n = 19) and those of patients with stage III stomach cancer (n = 64), referred to an elective surgery, aged 51-70. The blood was taken from the cubital vein three days before the operation, after premedication, during the most traumatic moment of the operation, after extubation, as well as on the first and third days of the postoperative period. The surgery was performed under combined multicomponent anesthesia using nitric oxide, sodium hydroxybutyrate, and epidural block. Thiamine and thiamine diphosphate kinase activities were assessed by the concentration of the formed thiamine di- and triphosphates of the vitamin. The activities of thiamine mono-, di- and triphosphatases were determined by the release of inorganic phosphate. The concentration of inorganic phosphate was recorded colorimetrically. The content of B1 and its derivatives in the blood was determined by the method of ion-pair reversed-phase HPLC. Results. There has been observed an increased content of thiamine monophosphate and that of free thiamine in the blood of donors and patients with stomach cancer. The registered rate of the hydrolytic thiamine monophosphatase reaction is not high. At the stages of premedication and maximum trauma of surgical exposure, the concentration of monophosphoric ester rapidly decreases alongside with monophosphatase activation. Therefore, the thiamine monophosphate hydrolysis is the rate-limiting link of vitamin B1 metabolism. The level of free thiamine remains persistently increased at all stages of surgical treatment. Thiamine monophosphatase activity is manifested at two pH optima – of 6.0 and 9.0. Thiamine monophosphate hydrolysis at pH of 9.0 is catalyzed by alkaline phosphatase. At pH of 6.0, in addition to thiamine monophosphoric ester, the enzyme hydrolyzes only p-nitrophenyl phosphate, flavin mononucleotide and phosphotyrosine, that allows it to be classified as hepatic acid phosphatase. The noted changes in B1 metabolism under stress concern mainly non-coenzyme forms - thiamine mono-, triphosphate, and free thiamine, which are used at the stages of thiol reduction as important components of insulin synthesis. Conclusions. The use of vitamin B1 allows to optimize the development of the stress response at all stages of surgical treatment. Its protective effect is achieved through the activation of the insulin-synthetic function of the pancreas, which increases the level of immunoreactive insulin in the blood. The formation of the most favorable physiological conditions for insulin synthesis provides an increased background of free thiamine, which is created due to the hydrolysis of noncoenzyme forms of the vitamin. The relationship between thiamine metabolism and B2 exchange and regulation of intracellular signaling pathways has been traced.

Abstract Aim The different surgical options for patients with colonic Crohn’s disease (CD) include segmental colectomy, subtotal colectomy or proctocolectomy with end ileostomy. We present a national, multicentre study, promoted by the Italian Society of Colorectal Surgery with the aim to collect benchmark data and national variations on multidisciplinary management and postoperative outcomes of patients undergoing surgery for colonic CD. Methods All adult patients having elective surgery for colonic CD from June 2018 to May 2019 were eligible for participation in this retrospective study. The primary outcome measure was postoperative morbidity within 30 days of surgery. Results One hundred twenty-two patients were included: 55 subtotal colectomy, 30 segmental colectomy, 25 proctectomy and 12 proctocolectomy. Eighty-six patients (70.4%) were discussed at the inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) multidisciplinary team meeting (MDT) prior to surgery. This ranged from 76.6% for segmental colectomy to 60% for subtotal colectomy, 66.6% for proctocolectomy and 48% for proctectomy. The proportion of patients counselled by a stoma nurse preoperatively was 50%. Laparoscopy was associated with reduced postoperative morbidity (p = 0.017) and shorter length of hospital stay (p < 0.001), whilst pre-operative anti-TNF was associated with Dindo-Clavien ≥ 3 complications (p = 0.023) and longer in-hospital stay (p = 0.007). The main procedure performed (segmental colectomy, subtotal colectomy, proctocolectomy or proctectomy) was not associated with postoperative morbidity (p = 0.626). Conclusions Surgery for colonic CD has a high rate of postoperative complications. Almost a third of the patients were not preoperatively discussed at the IBD MDT, whilst the use of minimally invasive surgery for surgical treatment of colonic CD ranges from 40 to 66%.

Abstract: Introduction and aim: Iliac artery aneurysms make up 2% of all aneurysms. There are only a few data available on the results of surgical treatment, therefore the optimal treatment is unclear. Our objective was the retrospective analysis of the perioperative morbidity and mortality of patients who underwent iliac artery surgery as well as the comparison of elective open surgery and endovascular iliac aneurysm repair (EVIAR). Method: Retrospective analysis of patients who underwent surgery for iliac artery aneurysm between 1 January 2005 and 31 December 2014. Results: During the 10-year period, 62 patients with a mean age of 68.9 years underwent elective surgery for iliac artery aneurysm (54 males, 87.1%). In 10 cases acute surgery was performed due to aneurysm ruptures (13.9%), 3 patients died within the perioperative period (30%). Regarding anatomical localisation, aneurysm developed mostly on the common iliac artery (80.6%). As an elective surgery, 35 patients (56.5%) underwent open surgery, 25 (40.3%) underwent EVIAR and other endovascular interventions were performed in 2 cases (3.2%). Postoperative complications (1 patient [4.0%] vs. 17 patients [48.5%]; p<0.001) and intensive care treatment (29 patients [82.8%] vs. 2 patients [8.0%]; p<0.001) were significantly rarer after EVIAR than after open surgery. Furthermore, EVIAR resulted in considerably shorter postoperative hospital stays (4.7 ± 2.3 days vs. 11.8 ± 12.2 days; p = 0.006) and significantly less blood transfusion demand (1 patient [4.0%] vs. 26 patients [74.2%]; p<0.001). There were no significant differences regarding long-term survival rates between EVIAR and open surgery (81.4% vs. 71.4%; p = 0.95). Conclusion: In case of the surgical treatment of iliac artery aneurysms, owing to the lower complication rates and shorter postoperative length of stay, EVIAR is primarily recommended.

Abstract The dependence of glycolate oxidase apoprotein (apoGO) activity on flavin analogs was surveyed in 9 higher plants from 7 families. Activities of all apoGOs depended not only on flavin mononucleotide (FMN) but also on flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), but not on riboflavin. The kinetic analysis showed that FMN was the optimum cofactor for apoGO from leaves of Brassica campestris. In plant kingdom, FMN, FAD and riboflavin are three flavin analogs with very similar structure, and they could coexist and be inter-converted from each other, so the question is how the apoprotein of glycolate oxidase (GO) recognized these flavin analogs. No inhibition effect of riboflavin on the activity of apoGO with FMN or FAD was found and no obvious quenching of riboflavin or apoGO protein fluorescence was detected with the addition of apoGO or riboflavin, respectively. These results indicated that riboflavin did not bind to apoGO tightly like FMN and FAD. Inorganic phosphate (Pi) did inhibit the activity of GO, and kinetic analysis revealed that this inhibition was caused by the competitive binding to apoGO between Pi and FMN. This competitive binding was further confirmed by the inhibition of Pi to the quenching of FMN and apoGO protein fluorescence with apoGO and FMN, respectively. It was suggested that the 5'-phosphate group of FMN or FAD may play a key role in the recognition and binding of riboflavin analog cofactors with apoGO.

Atherosclerotic lesions of the supra-aortic arteries are mainly localized in the carotid artery bifurcations – 57%, the subclavian artery – 18%, the vertebral arteries – 14%, the brachiocephalic trunk and the common carotid artery – 11%.Objective. Theobjective of the research was to systematize the principles of surgical treatment of patients with atherosclerotic lesions of the supra-aortic arteries taking into consideration their polymorbidity and the multicentricity of atherosclerosis.Materials and methods. The results of surgical reconstruction of the supra-aortic arteries in 468 patients were analyzed.All the patients were divided into two groups.Group I included 276 (59%) patients with previous surgical or endovascular intervention on any vascular territory for treatment of atherosclerotic lesions being admitted to the hospital for elective surgery on the extracranial arteries.Group II included 192 (41%) patients without previous surgical and invasive treatments of arterial pathology being hospitalized for surgery on the supra-aortic arteries.Results. In Group I, according to the objective and clinical methods of examination, the patients’ condition was more critical due to somatic and intraoperative risk. When analyzing the results of postoperative complications there was no statistically significant difference between both groups (p<0.05).The overall rate for serious complications (acute cerebrovascular disease and myocardial infarction) in both groups was 3.4%; the mortality rate was 1.1%.Conclusions. 1. Approximately 87% of surgical reconstructions of the aortic arch branches are aimed at the prevention of acute cerebrovascular disease. 2. Surgical treatment of atherosclerotic lesions of the supra-aortic arteries allows us to achieve good postoperative results (the overall rate for serious complications – 3.4%, the mortality rate –1.1%).

The clinical case of staged surgical treatment of multiple endocrine neoplasia and aspergilloma syndrome in a 21-year-old patient is presented. The patient was admitted to NIFP with the diagnosis: adrenocorticotropic hormone-producing tumor of the anterior mediastinum; diabetes mellitus, insulin dependent; secondary hypothyroidism; shingles; cavitary lesion of the upper lobe of the left lung, the lesion of the upper lobe of the right lung; hirsutism, edema syndrome. At the first stage, the patient underwent a sternotomy with removal of the tumor of the anterior mediastinum with adipose tissue and mediastinal lymph dissection, removal of the tumor of S3 of the right lung. At discharge, the patient was recommended to returm to NIFP in 2 months for elective surgery for aspergilloma of the upper left lung. But one month after discharge, the patient developed hemoptysis. She underwent a video-assisted typical resection of S1-S2 of the left lung. Removal of hormone-producing tumors allowed to normalize glycemia, discontinue insulin, normalize thyroid function and lead to regression of hirsutism and osteoporosis, restored muscle strength and normalized water-electrolyte balance. Key words: multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome, aspergilloma, surgical treatment.

Gastric stump cancer is a carcinoma which forms no earlier than 5years after surgery for benign disease. The incidence ranges from 2.4 to 5% among patients with stomach cancer. Previous operations lead to the emergence of an adhesive process in the abdominal cavity, changes in the anatomy and topography of the abdominal organs, as well as the development of new ways of lymph outflow. These factors lead to the re-surgery becomes technically more complicated and requires high professional training from the surgeon. Of particular surgical interest is the issue of restoration of the digestive tract, which directly depends on the nature and volume of the previous surgery. In this paper, the authors describe cases of surgical treatment of gastric stump cancer in two patients, who had previously undergone pancreaticoduodenectomy.
