AIM. To evaluate long-term results of treatment of patients with the complicated diverticular diseases, after elective colonic resection. PATIENTS. The outcome of 53 patient operated on pretreated recurrent diverticulitis were compared to results of treatment of 50 patients with diverticulitis complicated by perforation and treated initially by colostomy formation. RESULTS. In the first group the number of patients with postoperative functional gastrointestinal frustration and infringements in psychic and emotional sphere were higher, than in second group and correlated to presence of them before operation. Assessment of quality of life using MOS-SF 36 demonstrated decrease of score in all scales of the questionnaire infirst group, while in second group average score was comparable to healthy individuals. CONCLUSION. Indications for elective colonic resectionfor recurrent diverticulitis should be stricter.

When comparing the results of surgical interventions in the modifications of Billroth-I and Billroth-II concerning carcinoma there are no significant differences both in immediate and in long-term results of treatment. At the same time the functional results of interventions and quality of life of patients are better after reconstruction of the digestive tract with the help of gastroduodenal anastomosis. Gastric stump cancer is more often occur after Billroth-II surgery. The main cause of the development of carcinoma in this case is the appearance of atrophic gastritis as a result of denervation of the organ and the transfer of bile to the operated stomach.

The work evaluated the long-term treatment results of 103 patients with complicated diverticular disease, who underwent the elective surgery in the volume of left hemicolectomy. The first group included 53 patients with recurrent diverticula. The second group consisted of 50 patients, who underwent the operation on diverticula of sigmoid colon with formation of sigmostoma on the first stage. The number of patients with functional gastro-intestinal and psyco-emotional disorders was more significant in the first group compared with the second group and it was associated with presence of these disorders before the operation. There was noted the reliable decrease of quality of life rates according to questionnaire scales MOS-SF 36 in the first group. The average indices of scales had some matching to the rates of health people in the patients of the second group. The authors came to conclusion, that indications for elective surgery should be determined very carefully in case of recurrent diverticula.

Importance. Functional results of treatment of the ventral hernias of the medial localization after endoprosthetics of the abdominal wall by the standard polypropylene prosthesis remain unsatisfactory because of the limited flexibility of the abdominal wall. Purpose. To improve functional results of treatment of patients with ventral hernias of the medial localization by applying a light strengthened endoprosthesis. Materials and methods. There was done a comparative analysis of the results of treatment of 60 patients with medial hernias of the anterior abdominal wall. Patients were divided into two groups with 30 people in each group. In the first group over-aponeurotic endoprosthetics of the abdominal wall defect was provided with the use of a standard polypropylene prosthesis with the thread diameter 120 micron, while in the second group there was used a light strengthened endoprosthesis with the thread diameter in the basic zones 90 micron and in the strengthened zones 120 and 90 micron. Effectiveness of treatment in the nearest post-operative period was evaluated by the degree of severity of inflammatory implantation response, and in the long-term period evaluation was done on the base of functional state of the abdominal muscles, quality of life of patients and results of treatment by four point scale. Results and their discussion. Inflammatory exudative response on implantation of the light strengthened endoprosthesis was less and reparative response was 1,1 times higher compare to a standard prosthesis. Endoprosthetics of the abdominal wall with a light strengthened endoprosthesis improved contractility of the abdominal muscles in 1,2 times. Restoration of the functions of the abdominal muscles had a positive influence on quality of life, namely, physical component of health improved by 4,5%, as well as on long-term results of treatment by the increased number of excellent and good results of treatment by 20% and reduction of satisfactory results by 20%. Conclusions. The use of a light strengthened endoprosthesis enables to improve the functional results of treatment of ventral hernias of the medial localization.

Medical, social and economic relevance of inflammatory diseases of the woman's reproductive organs requires a very careful attitude to the diagnosis and treatment of this pathology. The number of patients with genital infections and inflammatory diseases of the pelvic organs can takes the first place in structure of gynecological morbidity, and is 60.4-65.0%, and this fact is not unique to Russia, but all over the world. Incidence rate of inflammatory diseases of the pelvic organs in the first decade of the twenty-first century is increased at 1.4 times in patients who are from 18 to 24 years old and at 1.8 times in patients aged 25-29 years. At the same time, the cost of diagnosis and treatment has increased, reaching 50-60% of the total cost of providing gynecological care for population. The inflammatory diseases of pelvic organs are a collective concept. It includes of various nosological forms. There are numerous contradictions in the views on diagnostic approaches and treatment tactics, the nature of screening and control over the long-term results of treatment, the etiological and pathogenetic significance of various microorganisms found in the genital tract in patients with inflammatory diseases of the pelvic organs. Currently, there are many opinions among specialists about diagnostic approaches and treatment tactics, the type of screening and monitoring the long-term results of treatment, the etiological and pathogenetic role of various microorganisms which can be found in the genital tract in patients with inflammatory diseases. This review presents the results of a modern approach to the diagnosis, management and rehabilitation of patients with inflammatory diseases of the pelvic organs.

The immediate and long-term results of treatment of 30 patients with severe pain syndrome of the lumbar region, who underwent operations on denervation of DOS, were studied. The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of minimally invasive technologies for the treatment of pain in the lumbar region (denervation of DOS), to study the near and distant results of these treatment methods. Denervation DOS is an effective minimally invasive method for the treatment of facet syndrome caused by spondylarthrosis. It allows in the early and distant postoperative periods to significantly reduce the pain syndrome and improve the quality of life of patients.

Abstract Background The long-term fate of severely injured patients in terms of their quality of life is not well known. Our aim was to assess the quality of life of patients who have suffered moderate to severe trauma and to identify primary factors of long-term quality of life impairment. Methods A prospective monocentric study conducted on a number of patients who were victims of moderate to severe injuries during the year 2012. Patients were selected based on an Injury Severity Score (ISS) more than or equal to 9. Quality of life was assessed by the MOS SF-36 and NHP scores as a primary evaluation criterion. The secondary evaluation criteria were the determination of the socio-economic impact on quality of life and the identification of factors associated with disability. Results Two hundred and eight patients were contacted by e-mail or telephone. Fifty-five patients participated in this study (with a participation level of 26.4%), including 78.2% men, with a median age of 46. Significant alterations in quality of life were observed with the NHP and MOS SF-36 scale, including physical and psychological components. This resulted in a major socio-economic impact as 26% of the patients could not resume their professional activities (n = 10), 20% required retraining in other lines of work, and 36.4% had a disability status. The study showed that scores ≤ 85 on the physical functioning variable of the MOS SF 36 scale was associated with disability. Conclusion More than five years after a moderate to severe injury, patients’ quality of life was significantly impacted, resulting in significant socio-economic consequences. Disability secondary to major trauma seems to be associated with a score ≤ 85 on the physical functioning dimension of the MOS SF-36 scale. This study raises the question of whether or not early rehabilitation programs should be implemented in order to limit the long-term impact of major trauma.

Background. A patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a rare cause of hypoxemia and clinical symptoms of dyspnea. Due to a right-to-left shunt, desaturated blood enters the systemic circulation in a subset of patients resulting in dyspnea and a subsequent reduction in quality of life (QoL). Percutaneous closure of PFO is the treatment of choice. Objectives. This retrospective multicentre study evaluates short- and long-term results of percutaneous closure of PFO in patients with dyspnea and/or reduced oxygen saturation. Methods. Patients with respiratory symptoms were selected from databases containing all patients percutaneously closed between January 2000 and September 2018. Improvement in dyspnea, oxygenation, and QoL was investigated using pre- and postprocedural lung function parameters and two postprocedural questionnaires (SF-36 and PFSDQ-M). Results. The average follow-up period was 36 [12–43] months, ranging from 0 months to 14 years. Percutaneous closure was successful in 15 of the 16 patients. All patients reported subjective improvement in dyspnea immediately after device deployment, consistent with their improvement in oxygen saturation (from 90 ± 6% to 94 [92–97%] on room air and in upright position) (p<0.05). Both questionnaires also indicated an improvement of dyspnea and QoL after closure. The two early and two late deaths were unrelated to the procedure. Conclusion. PFO-related dyspnea and/or hypoxemia can be treated successfully with a percutaneous intervention with long-lasting benefits on oxygen saturation, dyspnea, and QoL.

Objective: An increased interest in the surgical procedures of decompressive craniectomy (DC) and subsequent cranioplasty (CP) has emerged during the last decades with specific focus on mortality and complication rates. The aim of the present study was to evaluate long-term neurological and cosmetic outcomes as well as Quality of Life (QoL) after CP surgery.Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of CP patients treated at our institution between 2004 and 2014 and performed a follow-up examination, with evaluation of neurological outcome using the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) and the Glasgow outcome scale (GOS), QoL (SF-36 and EQ-5D-3L). Furthermore, the cosmetic results after CP were analyzed.Results: A total of 202 CP-patients were included in the present study. The main indications for DC and subsequent CP were space-occupying cerebral ischemia (32%), traumatic brain injury (TBI, 26%), intracerebral or subarachnoid hemorrhage (32%) and infection (10%). During a mean follow-up period of 91.9 months 46/42.6% of patients had a favorable neurological outcome (mRS ≤ 3/GOS ≥ 4). Patients with ischemia had a significant worse outcome (mRS 4.3 ± 1.5) compared with patients after TBI (3.1 ± 2.3) and infectious diseases requiring CP (2.4 ± 2.3). The QoL analysis showed that &lt;1/3rd of patients (31.2%) had a good QoL (SF-36) with a mean EQ-5D-VAS of 59 ± 26. Statistical analysis confirmed a significant worse QoL of ischemia patients compared to other groups whereas multivariate regression analysis showed no other factors which may had an impact on the QoL. The majority (86.5%) of patients were satisfied with the cosmetic result after CP and regression analysis showed no significant factors associated with unfavorable outcomes.Conclusion: Long-term outcome and QoL after CP were significantly influenced by the medical condition requiring DC. Early detection and evaluation of QoL after CP may improve the patient's outcome due to an immediate initiation of targeted therapies (e.g., occupational- or physiotherapy).
