Feeding Regimen

At present the disease called pancreatitis has become widespread not only among humans, but also among animals, including dogs. It is not only difficult to diagnose, but also to treat. The main cause is considered to be improper feeding of the animal, which can include fatty feed, various spices, sweets, etc. Even the same irregular feeding regimen can lead to pancreatitis. To diagnose this disease, various scientists offer different methods of research: ranging from general and biochemical blood tests to ultrasound diagnostics of the abdominal cavity. We conducted a study of the clinical case of acute form of pancreatitis in the dog breed pug, aged 1 year and 3 months. The main clinical features of the disease were general weakness and frequent vomiting seen over several days. It was also found the main etiologic factor - the wrong feeding regimen of the young organism and formed as a result of this distorted appetite. Elevated hematocrit and erythrocytosis indicate dehydration. Moderate monocytosis and neutrophilia with a shift to the left, as well as lymphopenia are indicators of stress and significant inflammation. Concentration ability of the kidneys is not impaired, as evidenced by urine analysis. Hyperglycemia is possibly stress related. Hypercholesterolemia and increased ALP activity are the result of cholestasis syndrome. A decrease in the concentration of phosphorus, urea and creatinine may indicate a violation of feeding, namely a low-protein diet, possibly even starvation. A strong increase in the activity of the enzymes amylase and lipase, along with the history data and changes in the leukocyte formula, as well as ultrasound confirm the diagnosis of pancreatitis. The therapy included active intravenous infusion of solutions to maintain metabolic processes together with analgesics, namely 0.9 % sodium chloride solution - 300 ml per day (with the addition of 2 % lidocaine solution), Ringer's lactate solution - 154 ml per day, and drugs to reduce pain and the growth of pathogenic bacteria: serenia - 0.3 ml once a day, Sinulox - 0.3 ml, once a day. Infusion therapy was carried out at a constant rate using a perfuser. Diet therapy for pancreatitis is a fairly important link in any treatment regimen. At the end of the 3rd day in the hospital, Rocky began to drink water, it was recommended to give him a small amount (about a tablespoon) chopped and diluted with warm, boiled water, dietary food Gastro Intestinal Low Fat from Royal Canin.

The authors describe clinical observations of children with acute mesenteric adenitis with PCRconfirmed COVID-19 infection. Attention during ultrasound diagnostics is drawn to the condition of the lymph nodes – mesenteric adenitis in COVID-19 infection was manifested by a significant increase in the size of the nodes – more than 15 mm, a large number of nodes in the cut with a tendency to form a conglomerate, a more rounded shape, significantly increased blood flow, a reaction of the peritoneum in the form its thickening and the presence of free fluid in the abdominal cavity. Unusual for a «ordinary» respiratory viral or intestinal infection type of lymph nodes was the only sign that distinguishes the manifestations of mesenteric infection in COVID-19 infection.

Abdominal Bleeding

The article defines the significance and relevance of the problem of endometriosis during pregnancy. 10% of women in the reproductive period have different localization of endometriosis. 25% of pregnancies with endometriosis are complicated by preterm labor. The article presents a clinical case of intra-abdominal bleeding in a 28-year-old pregnant woman with retrocervical endometriosis at gestation age of 32 weeks and 6 days. The article covers the results of examination and special diagnostic procedures of intra-abdominal bleeding in pregnant women with retrocervical endometriosis. The main diagnostic methods were the study of past medical history, ultrasound examination, and laboratory tests. Due to their infrequency during pregnancy internal bleedings present difficulties in their diagnosis. Ultrasound reliably revealed a large amount of fluid in the abdominal cavity and small pelvis and excluded the presence of intrauterine bleeding. Clinical and laboratory tests indicated the severity of the patient's condition. Symptoms of moderate fetal distress were also identified. Therefore, a decision was made about an emergency delivery by the cesarean section followed by an abdominal revision. During the cesarean section, 500 ml of blood in the form of dark blood clots was found in the abdominal cavity. The condition of the premature newborn was in conformity with his gestational age. The source of bleeding were the of endometriosis on the back wall of the uterus. These focuses most likely caused hemoperitoneum. The revision of the abdominal cavity did not find any other foci of bleeding. The postoperative period was uneventful. The article provides general guidelines for the management of pregnant women with severe forms of endometriosis.

The purpose of the study was to study a complex of changes in ultrasound parameters of injured tissues of the liver, spleen, pancreas in mechanical trauma and their dependence on the nature and duration of injury. Materials and methods. Ultrasound examinations were performed in 60 injured patients (41 males and 19 females) aged 20 to 60 years old in the dynamics as for the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th days after injury. Puncture, transverse and oblique scans from all possible accesses were used. The conditions of the liver, pancreas, spleen, kidneys were studied. Results and discussion. In the course of the studies, a high number of injuries to the abdominal and retroperitoneal organs was demonstrated; it was proved that isolated liver injuries were observed in 32%, in 68% the liver injury was combined with injuries of other abdominal organs. We observed isolated damage to the pancreas in 10%, in the remaining 90%, the injury to the pancreas was combined with damage to the liver, gallbladder and extrahepatic bile ducts, spleen, and intestines. Isolated injuries of the spleen were observed in 31% of patients; in other cases, the injury to the spleen was combined with injuries of other organs of the abdominal cavity. We observed isolated kidney damage in almost 15%. In 85% of cases, kidney damage was observed in combination with injuries of other parenchymal organs. It has been demonstrated that in the area of injured tissues of the liver, pancreas, spleen, and kidneys with blunt trauma to the abdomen in persons with no signs of alcohol intoxication, regular ultrasound changes are observed, which are in direct proportion to the time elapsed since the injury was caused. The main ultrasound signs of liver damage were ruptures of the parenchyma with the formation of intra-parenchymal or subcapsular hematomas. In general, for almost all the injured people the following sings were characteristic as an increase in liver size (often due to increased part of damage), heterogeneity of structure, blurred contours and their discontinuity, presence of hypo- and anechoic areas (hematomas) on the background of intact parenchyma. Characteristic ultrasound criteria of pancreatic damage in the first day are the lack of clear contours of the gland, their discontinuity, increase in the size of the gland, the presence of hypoechoic areas of different sizes. At ultrasound examination of the spleen, the main signs of its damage are the heterogeneity of the parenchyma and the presence of anechoic structure and free fluid in the abdominal cavity. In 69% of cases, the main sings were blurred and uneven contours of the spleen, as well as an increase in its size. Characteristic features of renal hematoma are an increase in their size, heterogeneity of structure with increasing echogenicity of the parenchyma, blurred contours and their discontinuity. Conclusion. It has been proven that it is advisable to use in a complex of changes in the parenchymal organs revealed by ultrasound examinations, both in cases of isolated organ trauma, and in cases of combined trauma of the abdominal cavity and retroperitoneal organs, to determine the time of causing damage, since it makes it possible to increase the objectivity of the results of establishing the duration of the injury

Background. Gastric and duodenal ulcers are extremely rare in pregnancy, according to published literature. Peptic ulcer is found in 1 per 4,000 pregnant women, a figure probably underestimated due to its hampered diagnosis in pregnancy. Pregnancy peptic ulcer is considered less expected. Perforated gastric and duodenal ulcers comprise about 1.5 % of total acute abdominal diseases, and the perforation rate in ulcer patients ranges within 5–15 %. This complication afflicts the ages of 20–40 years in men much more frequently than in women. Three perforation types occur: free into abdominal cavity (87 %), contained (9 %), into lesser omentum and retroperitoneal tissue (4 %).Materials and methods. The clinical case describes surgical management of posttraumatic diaphragmatic hernia-comorbid perforated gastric ulcer in a pregnant woman in third trimester. Surgery with postoperative patient management enabled for a favourable outcome.Results and discussion. Perforation-entailing gastric and duodenal ulcers in pregnant women have received negligible attention due to rarity in clinical practice. Paul et al. described 14 cases of duodenal perforation in pregnancy, all fatal.Conclusion. Early diagnosis of surgical pathology during gestation is still difficult contributing to the development of severe complications associated with high mortality. The patient’s admission to a level III interspecialty hospital was key to enable a timely consilium-driven decision of caesarean intervention for saving the child, diagnosing intraoperatively life-threatening complicated surgical diseases and opting for radical surgery that ended in a favourable outcome.

Поскольку непосредственные этиологические факторы аномалии развития не известны, в работе выделены основные группы причин, способствующих формированию пороков развития головного мозга. Большое значение отводится ранней диагностике пороков развития, которая позволяет своевременно решить вопрос о возможности пролонгирования беременности, что определяется видом порока, совместимостью с жизнью и прогнозом в отношении постнатального развития. В исследовании рассматриваемого порока развития большую роль играют такие современные методы, как пренатальная ультразвуковая диагностика, нейросонография, рентгеновская компьютерная и магнитно-резонансная томография головного мозга, имеющие достаточно высокую информативность. Указаны сроки гестации, позволяющие выявить структурные дефекты головного мозга. Медико-генетическое консультирование помогает выявить риск появления больного потомства. Проведена дифференциальная диагностика семилобарной с другими формами голопрозэнцефалии. Также отмечены возможные клинические проявления рассматриваемой нозологии. В данной статье представлен клинический случай семилобарной голопрозэнцефалии, диагностированной у мальчика в возрасте 1 месяц. При поступлении мать предъявляла жалобы на срыгивания и периодическое беспокойство сына. Объем и результаты обследования ребенка изложены ниже. Выявлена сопутствующая патология в виде пупочной грыжи, врожденной аномалии развития мочевой системы: подковообразная почка; водянки яичек и головчатой формы гипоспадии. После проведения курса поддерживающей терапии пациент был выписан в стабильном состоянии. В настоящее время специфическое лечение голопрозэнцефалии отсутствует. Оперативные вмешательства на головном мозге проводятся редко ввиду тяжести состояния больных, в связи с чем лечение данной патологии возможно только с помощью хирургической коррекции симптомов. Длительная дыхательная и кардиоваскулярная дисфункция предопределяет летальный исход заболевания. Since the direct etiological factors of developmental abnormalities are not known, the main groups of causes contributing to the formation of brain malformations are identified in the work. Great importance is given to the early diagnosis of malformations, which allows us to timely resolve the issue of the possibility of prolonging pregnancy, which is determined by the type of defect, compatibility with life and the prognosis for postnatal development. In the study of the considered malformation, such modern methods as prenatal ultrasound diagnostics, neurosonography, X-ray computer and magnetic resonance imaging of the brain, which have a sufficiently high informative value, play an important role. The terms of gestation are indicated, which make it possible to identify structural defects of the brain. Medical and genetic counseling helps to identify the risk of the appearance of sick offspring. The differential diagnosis of semilobar with other forms of holoprosencephaly was carried out. Possible clinical manifestations of the nosology under consideration are also noted. This article presents a clinical case of semilobar holoprosencephaly diagnosed in a boy at the age of 1 month. Upon admission, the mother complained of regurgitation and periodic anxiety of her son. The scope and results of the child's examination are set out below. Concomitant pathology was revealed in the form of an umbilical hernia, a congenital abnormality of the development of the urinary system: a horseshoe kidney; dropsy of the testicles and a cephalic form of hypospadias. After a course of maintenance therapy, the patient was discharged in a stable condition. Currently, there is no specific treatment for holoprosencephaly. Surgical interventions on the brain are rarely performed due to the severity of the patients ' condition, and therefore, the treatment of this pathology is possible only with the help of surgical correction of symptoms. Prolonged respiratory and cardiovascular dysfunction determines the fatal outcome of the disease.

Endometriosis is a chronic hormone-dependent progressive disease characterized by the presence of ectopic endometrioid tissue. Most often, endometriosis affects the ovaries, fallopian tubes and the abdominal cavity, but endometrioid foci are also found in the intestines, heart, lungs, skin and other atypical localizations. This article presents a clinical case of retrocervical endometriosis diagnosed based on the results of pathological and histological examination. It is important to note the complexity of the differential diagnosis of this form of endometriosis due to secondary changes in the area of the colon and the absence of characteristic clinical manifestations.

Currently, in pediatric practice, a special place is occupied by patients with severe allergic lesions of the gastrointestinal tract, which often manifest immediately after the birth of a child. Food protein-induced enteropathy reduces the quality of life of the child and family; it is difficult to diagnose and to treat. We present a clinical case of a patient with food protein-induced enteropathy, complicated by severe B12-deficiency anemia and edema syndrome. In the tactics of patient management, attention is paid to the late diagnosis of the underlying disease and complications, the complexity of prescribing diet therapy and the lack of alertness regarding the diagnosis of malabsorption associated with food intolerance.

The widely used traditional method of surgical treatment of patients with widespread purulent peritonitis failed to establish itself as universal and has a large number of disadvantages, which prompts the use of new methods of managing patients in the postoperative period in surgical practice. The case described in the work illustrates the possibilities of a successful integrated approach in the treatment of diffuse purulent peritonitis against the background of Abdominal Compartment Syndrome, which includes the «Open abdomen» and «VAC-therapy» techniques, the use of which leads to a persistent decrease in both IАP and relief of the phenomena of purulent inflammation in the abdominal cavity. Conclusions. The use of VAC-therapy in combination with the «Open abdomen» technique leads to a persistent decrease in both ICP and relief of the phenomena of purulent inflammation in the abdominal cavity.

Aim. To demonstrate a clinical case of acute gastric volvulus and to give a brief literary review of the disease. Materials and methods. A 12-year-old child who has applied for acute abdominal pain, repeated vomiting, with typical signs of obstruction of the upper gastrointestinal tract.Results. After the clinical and instrumental examination, the child was urgently operated. With laparotomy, the patient was diagnosed with acute secondary gastric volvulus with necrosis and perforation, against the background of a true left-sided diaphragmatic hernia, severe pancreatic lesions. The patient had a suturing of the stomach defect, diaphragm plastic, thorough sanitation and drainage of the abdominal cavity. The postoperative period was very difficult, due to complications of the underlying disease. As a result of the treatment, the patient was discharged in satisfactory condition.Conclusion. The clinical case confirms the severity of this nosology, accompanied by serious consequences. In our case, the patient recovered, but diagnostic errors and developing complications in acute gastric lavage often lead to death.
