Objective: To improve the treatment of young children with traumatic intracranial hematomas by improving the diagnosis and use of minimally invasive surgical methods based on calculations of the intracranial hematoma volume index (VICH). Subjects and Methods: An analysis of the clinical course as well as the surgical treatment of 111 patients was carried out. The patients were under the age of 3, with severe traumatic brain injury, and formation of intracranial hematomas. The children were treated at the Department of Pediatric Neurosurgery of the City Children’s Clinical Hospital No.3 in Omsk, Russia, from 2008 to 2018. Three groups were identified: Group A - children with epidural hematomas (n=30), Group B - children with subdural hematomas (n=43), Group C - children with multiple hematomas (n=38). The volume index of intracranial hematomas (VICH) was calculated, and the surgical tactics were determined based on the value of the VICH. Results: Children with a VICH less than 2% received conservative treatments. Those with a VICH from 2 to 4% were treated with minimally invasive methods (puncture, drainage). Children with VICH above 4% underwent decompressive surgery. Conclusion: The effectiveness of the developed differentiated tactics of treatment of young children with traumatic intracranial hematomas (ICH) is characterized by a decrease in the risk of an unfavourable outcome by 74.2% and mortality by 1.2%.

Minimally Invasive Surgical Treatment

This article is devoted to the results of applying the original minimally invasive surgical technique for the treatment of chronic internal hemorrhoids. The purpose of the study is to improve the outcomes of treatment in patients with chronic internal hemorrhoids by the simultaneous use of pathogenically substantiated low-traumatic surgical methods: dearterialization of internal hemorrhoids with Doppler guidance and clamping with latex rings. Materials and methods. Study included 204 patients with chronic hemorrhoids of the II–III degree, divided into 3 groups depending on the technique of minimally invasive surgery. The standard research methods for coloproctology were used. Results. It was found that the best short-term and long-term results of the surgical treatment of chronic internal hemorrhoids were obtained using the combined surgical technique proposed by the authors. Conclusions. The proposed combination of minimally invasive surgery may be the method of choice in the surgical treatment of chronic hemorrhoids of the II–III degree.

AbstractAn increasing incidence of sacral insufficiency fractures in geriatric patients has been documented, representing a major challenge to our healthcare system. Determining the accurate diagnosis requires the use of sectional imaging, including computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Initially, non-surgical treatment is indicated for the majority of patients. If non-surgical treatment fails, several minimally invasive therapeutic strategies can be used, which have shown promising results in small case series. These approaches are sacroplasty, percutaneous iliosacral screw fixation (S1 with or without S2), trans-sacral screw fixation or implantation of a trans-sacral bar, transiliac internal fixator stabilisation, and spinopelvic stabilisation. These surgical strategies and their indications are reported in detail. Generally, treatment-related decision making depends on the clinical presentation, fracture morphology, and attending surgeonʼs experience.
