Treatment results for 61 patients with diaphyseal fractures of long bones of the extremities are presented. Fractures of the humerus were diagnosed in18 (29.5%) patients, femur - in 22 (36.1%) and tibia - in 21 (34.4%) patients. In most cases fractures of A1, A2, A3 and B1 were observed. For osteosynthesis blocking and non-blocking Fixion intramedullary nails were used. Long-term results (1 - 1.5 years) were analyzed for 42 patients and showed excellent and good results in 93% of patients. Nonunion and deformity was observed in 7% of observations. The advantages of the technique included low traumatization, short duration of surgical intervention, minimum (up to 200 ml) blood loss.

The analysis of treatment results of 128 patients aged from 21 to 62 years old with chronic posttraumatic osteomyelitis of the long bones was made at the period from 2006 to 2013. The main group included 67 patients and the method of programmed irrigation aspiration sanation was applied for them. The comparison group consisted of 61 patients and drainage was performed for these patients using the conventional ways. The authors noted good immediate results in the main group in 56 (83,58%) out of 67 patients and in the comparison group - in 43 (70,49%) out of 61 patients. The long-term results were analyzed in 116 (90,6%) out of 128 patients in terms from two to five years after treatment. The rate of recurrences such as formation of purulent fistula were twice less in patients of the main group, than in the comparison group. According to the results of questionnaire SF-36, there was noticed, that patients of the main group got better mean indices of quality of life on all 8 scales compared with the other group.

Conservative treatment of congenital clubfoot is generally accepted standard in the world orthopedic practice. There are many techniques that basically include functional methods and techniques of passive correction of the deformity. We analyzed 10 years of experience in the treatment of primary clubfoot according to three techniques - Zatsepin’s method, author’s method and Ponseti method. The evaluation of treatment results in the short and long terms was carried out. Analysis of long-term results showed a statistically significant advantage of Pontseti method over the other used techniques.

The Aim of research is to improve the results of surgical treatment of incisional ventral hernia by applying a case-specific approach and a new method of plastic repair of anterior abdominal wall. The prospective controlled dynamic study is based on incisional ventral hernia treatment results with the use of meshed endoprostheses among 219 patients. On-lay alloplasty was used in patients younger than 60 years of age, without severe concomitant pathology, with small and medium hernias and anterior abdominal wall defect of up to 10 cm (W1 - W2). The article shows a selection algorithm for anterior abdominal wall plastic repair method. It goes through advantages of the author’s proprietary technique. The article displays frequency and patterns of complications, life quality of the patients after various prosthetic plastic repairs. In the main group, positive treatment results were observed in 65.0%, long-term results of the operation were observed in 88.4%, complications occurred in 13.6%, relapse in 4.5%. «On lay» treatment tactics showed positive results in 59.4%, long-term results of the operation were observed in 74.7%, complications occurred in 40%, relapse in 3.1%. After «sub lay» intervention, excellent results were observed in 40.0% of patients, long-term results of the operation were observed in 81.9%, complications occurred in 12%, and relapse in 1.4%.

Object The goal of this report was to describe the safety and effectiveness of nucleus ventralis intermedius (VIM) thalamotomy performed with the Leksell Gamma Knife (GK) for the treatment of essential tremor (ET). Methods One hundred seventy-two patients underwent a total of 214 VIM thalamotomy procedures with the Leksell GK between February 1994 and March 2007 for treatment of disabling ET. Eleven patients were lost to follow-up less than 1 year after the procedures, so that in this report the authors describe the results in 161 patients who underwent a total of 203 thalamotomies (119 unilateral and 42 bilateral). Results There were statistically significant decreases (p < 0.0001) in tremor scores for both writing and drawing. The mean postoperative follow-up duration for all patients was 44 ± 33 months. Fifty-four patients have been followed for more than 60 months posttreatment. There were 14 patients who suffered neurological side effects that were temporary (6) or permanent (8), which accounted for 6.9% of the 203 treatments. All complications were related to lesions that grew larger than expected. Conclusions A VIM thalamotomy with the Leksell GK offers a safe and effective alternative for surgical treatment of ET. It is particularly applicable to patients who are not ideal candidates for deep brain stimulation but can be offered to all patients who are considering surgical intervention for ET.

AbstractThe effect of aerobic bacteriology on the clinical presentation, complications of the disease and long-term results of surgical treatment was assessed in a cohort of 368 patients with chronic suppurative otitis media. Bacteriological findings showed no significant difference between child and adult patients. Staphylococcus aureus was isolated in cholesteatoma ears more frequently than Pseudomonas aeruginosa, in chronic ears without cholesteatoma the situation was reversed. Bacteriological findings had no significant effect on the incidence of complications caused by the disease. Failures after surgical treatment were most common in Pseudomonas ears. The bacteriology had no significant effect on pre-operative hearing levels nor postoperative hearing results. It was concluded that, in order to improve results of chronic ear sugery, more attention should be paid to pre-operative conservative treatment of chronically discharging ears, especially those infected by P. aeruginosa.

Early and long-term results of radiofrequency facet destruction for 245 patients with cervical, thoracic and lumbar spondyloarthrosis were presented. One hundred six patients (control group) were treated conservatively. Treatment results were assessed by pain syndrome intensity using pain audit. One year after operation good result was observed in 62 (32%) out of 195 patients and satisfactory results — in 117 (60%) patients. That method enabled to eliminate considerably vertebrogenic pain localized in one dermatome when conservative treatment failed. Our experience showed that radiofrequency facet nerves destruction was safe and did not result in soft tissue injuries. All that enabled patients to return to work at maximum short terms.

Experience in surgical treatment of 112 patients with malunited fractures of distal radius epimetaphysis is presented. Indication to surgical intervention was fragments consolidation with displacement that was accompanied by marked wrist joint deformity and hand function disturbance. In all patients osteotomy and bone plasty were performed followed by application of distraction device. In the postoperative period dosed distraction of bone fragments up to their complete reposition and rehabilitation treatment was performed. Long term results were assessed for all 87 patients: good result was achieved in 67 (77%), satisfactory - in 17 (19.5%) and poor - in 3 (3.5%) patients.
