Abstract Purpose of the study. Comparative evaluation of the results of treatment of patients with varicose veins (VVs) in stage C6, with the valve incompetence of the trunks of GSV and ASSV in one lower limb, by traditional venectomy and radiofrequency ablation (RFA). Materials and methods. The study was conducted on the basis of MI «RCH n.a. І.І. Mechnikov», MNE «CCH №16» DCC and MC «JMC Menorah» from 2010 to 2020 yy. Included 43 patients: women – 29 (67,4%), men – 14 (32,6%). Age - from 29 to 74 years (average – 52,7 ± 10,8 years). Patients are divided into 2 groups. The I group (n = 22) included patients who underwent traditional venectomy of GSV and ASSV, the II group (n = 21) – patients who underwent RFA under local anestesia. The observation lasted 12 months. Results. The average area of ulcers ranged from 1 to 12 cm2. The average area of ulcers in group I was 6,3 ± 3,1 cm2, in group II – 6,2 ± 2,7 cm2. Complete epithelialization of ulcers occurred faster with the use of RFA (group II) – 38,1 ± 5,7 days against 44,7 ± 6,2 days in group I. After 3 months. the number of healed ulcers in group I. was 20 (83,3%), in II – 24 (96,0%). Ulcer recurrence one year after surgery occurred in 4 (5,6%) patients of group I, in group II there were no recurrences. After 6 months the difference between the severity of CVI (VSS) was 10,5 ± 2,8 points in group I and 13,9 ± 2,2 points in group II. Conclusions. 1. Surgical treatment of VVs at unilateral defeat of GSV and ASSV with use of RFA differs in the better profile of a postoperative pain syndrome, less traumatism, has the best indicators of recovery in comparison with a traditional venectomy. 2. Treatment with RFA in comparison with traditional phlebectomy one year after surgery had an advantage in the number of recurrences of trophic ulcers Keywords: varicose veins, venectomy, radiofrequency ablation, trophic ulcers.

Background: Varicose veins are a common condition affecting the lower limbs. Apart from having cosmetic problem, if not treated in time it can have some serious complications and are difficult to treat. Multiple modes of surgical management exist for the disease.Methods: This is a prospective clinical study, done over a period of 5-years, from February 2015 till February 2020. Patients were divided into 2 groups: group I (n=103) included those who underwent open surgical treatment with venous stripping. Group II (n=104) included those who subjected to Radiofrequency ablation (RFA). Groups were selected with comparable physical parameters. Various parameters like bleeding, hematoma, blood requirement, postoperative inflammation, pain, numbness, mobilization, date of discharge and resuming duties were compared. All patients were followed up for 1year.Results: Majority of our patients belongs to age group 20-40 years with mean age of 35year in both groups. Male has dominance over female with male to female ratio 4:1. Noticed significant complication in group I than group II, such as bleeding (20:1), hematoma (5:0), inflammation (60:1) and blood requirement (1:0). In group II, noticed early mobilization of patient (1day v/s 3 days), discharge from hospital (1day v/s 5 days) and resuming duties (5 days v/s 2 weeks).Conclusion: RFA keeps an edge over open surgical treatment with venous stripping.

Clinical And Radiological Results

Purpose. Compare the clinical and radiological results of treatment of patients with spinal deformities operated on using the PSO method and corrective fusion in the lumbar spine. Materials and methods. Retrospective monocenter cohort study. The data of 42 patients were analyzed. PSO (group I) was performed in 12 patients; 30 patients had a combination of surgical methods (group II) with mandatory ventral corrective spinal fusion at levels L4-L5, L5-S1. Clinical and radiological parameters were evaluated during hospitalization and at least 1 year later. Results. Postoperative hospitalization in group I 32.5 7.4 days, 27.1 7.4 in group II (p = 0.558758). The duration of the operation in group I was 402.5 55.6 minutes, in group II 526.0 116.2 minutes (p = 0.001124); blood loss 1862.5 454.3 ml versus 1096.0 543.3 ml (p = 0.000171). In both groups, significantly improved clinical and radiological parameters after surgery and after 1 year (p 0.05). In group II, as compared with group I after surgery and more than 1 year: lower back pain according to VAS (p = 0.015424 and p = 0.015424); below ODI after 1 year was (p = 0.000001). In group I, compared with group II after surgery and after 1 year, SVA is less (p = 0.029879 and p = 0.000014), lumbar lordosis is higher (p = 0.045002 and p = 0.024120), LDI is restored more optimally (p = 0.000001 and p = 0.000002), the GAP is lower (p = 0.005845 and p = 0.002639). The ideal Russoly type is restored more often in patients of group II (p = 0,00032). Complications in group I were noted in 12 (100%) patients, in group II in 13 (43.3%) patients (p = 0.001). Conclusions. In multistep surgical treatment compared with PSO, the anterior corrective interbody fusion L4-L5, L5-S1 reliably better and more harmoniously restores the sagittal balance parameters, has significantly lower volume of intraoperative blood loss, fewer perioperative complications and significantly improves the quality of life of patients.

Summary. The complications, reported most frequently by physicians are: additions of an infection, impaired fracture union processes, the occurrence of persistent joint contractures, especially after intra-articular fractures. Mechanical-related complications associated with bone-fixing devices are of particular importance. The information mechanical complications in the literature is rather controversial. Particularly debatable is the identification of any specific backgrounds of these complications. Virtually no attention is paid to the behavioral or social aspects of the issue, and the quality of the rehabilitation regime. Objective. Analysis of the background of the complications after surgical treatment, associated with mechanical factors, and identification of the means able to prevent them. Material and methods. The results of treatment of 36 patients operated on for fractures of their extremities, who had complications related to the inadequate mechanical fixation of their broken bones. The onset of complications ranged from 5 days to 1 year from the date of surgery. All patients were divided into 2 groups: Group I (iatrogenic) - 10 patients with iatrogenic complications; Group II (patient-dependent) - 26 patients with clearly identified patient-dependent disorders. Results. There were 15 fractures of a retainer (or its elements) and 21 cases of migration or deformation of structures. The most problematic segment was the proximal thigh, which, in our opinion, has a clear age dependence. Analyzing the errors of surgical treatment (group I), we have assumed that they could be prevented by the timely correction of postoperative complications. The prescribed treatment regimen was violated in 72,2% of cases (group II). 13 patients (50%) reported a repeated trauma in the early post-operative period. Conclusions. Prevention of mechanically-induced complications should be based on the adherence to surgical protocols, dynamic observation of the patients in the post-operation period through tight relations with the outpatient unit, considering both somatic and psychological criteria, and timely correction of the treatment regimen.

Objective. Improvement of quality of the patients’ treatment, who suffer chronic hemorrhoids Stages III-IV, applying ultrasound energy intraoperatively. Materials and metods. The results of treatment are presented of 129 patients, suffering chronic hemorrhoids Stages III-IV: in 58 of them ultrasound energy was applied (Group I - the main), and in 71 - a standard procedure was performed (Group II - a control one). Results. Average duration of the operation have constituted in patients of Group I - (15.8 ± 1.7) min, and in Group II - (38.6 ± 1.5) min (p < 0.05). Postoperatively the patients of Group I have complained of pain during (3.4 ± 0.2) days, while in the Group II - during (7.5 ± 0.5) days (p < 0.05). In the patients of Group I only nonnarcotic analgetics during (3.4 ± 0.2) days; while in the Group II narcotic preparations were needed (2.1 ± 0.2) days, and nonnarcotic - (5.4 ± 0.3) days. Postoperatively in the Group II patients the pain syndrome level on the first day have constituted (9.1 ± 0.4) points, what is in 2.4 times higher, than in Group I (p < 0.05). Average stationary stay have constituted in the operated patients of Group I (2.8 ± 0.2) days, and in the Group II - (4.3 ± 0.4) days (p < 0.05). Conclusion. Application of the ultrasound energy permits to shorten the operation duration, average duration of stationary stay of the patients, and to reduce the pain syndrome level. Also, while application of ultrasound, the necessity to use narcotic analgetics postoperatively is eliminated. The quality of life indices during 6 mo postoperatively were better in the patients, who were operated, using ultrasound, than in those, to whom classic hemorrhoidectomy was performed.

Objective: The weakness of the quadriceps strength in patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is very evident. Therefore, quadriceps strengthening exercises are very important part of the rehabilitation program. Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation (NMES) is considered one of the methods for increasing quadriceps muscle strength. To evaluate the effectiveness of combined NMES and strengthening exercises to improve the recovery of quadriceps strength and function in patients with PFPS. Methods: This study was planned as a randomized controlled pilot study. A total of 27 patients (mean age=38.9±10.8 years, range=20-60 years; 16 females) with PFPS were assessed and randomly assigned into 2 groups. Group I received a standard program (quadriceps strengthening, hip strengthening and hamstring stretching) and NMES combined with quadriceps strengthening exercises simultaneously. Group II received the same standard program without NMES. Both groups were enrolled 3 times per week for 40 minutes per day in 6 weeks. Patients were assessed at the baseline, 3 rd, 6th, and 12th weeks of treatment. Quadriceps strength was evaluated by isokinetic dynamometer. The range of motion at testing was set between 0 for extension to 90 for flexion. The test was performed at 60 degrees/sn and concentric maximum peak torque value was recorded. Kujala and Lysholm scores were used for functional assessments. The data were analyzed using the SPSS 20.0. Shapiro-Wilk test was used to assess the distribution of data. The changes in dependent variables before treatment, 3 rd, 6th, and 12th weeks were analyzed using a 2 by 4 mixed-model analysis of variance (ANOVA). Pairwise comparisons with paired t test were used to determine whether the Group I or Group II, has changed over time. An intention- to- treat analysis was performed to impute values for missing data. An alpha level of 0.05 was established. Results: The study was completed with 20 patients. Group I (n=10; mean age=39.4±8.5 years; 7 females) and group II (n=10; mean age=43.2±11.7 years; 5 females) had no differences in pre-operative measures (p>.05). There was significant improvements in within groups statistics of all parameters for both groups (p<.05). No differences in quadriceps strength, Kujala and Lysholm scores between groups were found at the different time points (F= 0.86; p = 0.12, F=0,001; p =0.97, F=0.12; p=0.73, respectively) Conclusion: NMES combined with quadriceps strengthening exercises has no additional effect on PFPS patients’ on muscle strength and function. When considering these results, we believe that there is no need to continue the study in progress. [Table: see text]

Background/Aim. A modern approach to surgical treatment of tuboperitoneal infertility is based on laporascopic techniques. The aim of this study was to compare results of tuboperitoneal infertility treatment by the use of laparoscopy and classical laparotomy. Methods. A retrospectiveprospective study on 66 women treated operatively form tuboperitoneal infertility was performed. Data from patient's anamnesis and those related to the surgical treatment results, obtained by the use of an inquiry, were used in retrospective and prospective analysis, respectively. Chi-square test was used in statistical analysis. P value < 0.05 was considered significant. Results. Classical laparotomy was used on 34 women in a period from 1996 to 1997, while 32 women were operated laparoscopically in a period from 1999 to 2000. The results were as follows: a total number of conceived women was 16 (24%), seven in the group I (20.6%) and nine in the group II (28.1%); 13 women were with one pregnancy, six in the group I (17.6%) and seven in the group II (22%). Twice pregnant were three women, one in the group I (2.9%) and two in the group II (6.2%). The resulting pregnancies were: five women with abortion spontaneous, two in the group I (5.9%) and three in the group II (9.4%); two women with extrauterine pregnancy in the group I (5.9%); three with pretemporal birth, one in the group I (2.9%) and two in the group II (6.2%), while six women were with the temporal birth, two in the group I (5.9%) and four in the group II (12.5%). Statistical analysis showed that there was no significant difference in the results between these two groups. Conclusion. Surgical treatment of tubeperitoneal infertility, regardless of the used methods (classical laparotomy or laparoscopy) was successful in a great number of women. These methods have a great advantage over in vitro fertilization, and they should not be ignored.

Background/Aim. Esotropia is the most common manifestation form of strabism accompanied by refraction deviations and amblyopia. The aim of this prospective study was to present the outcomes of surgical treatment of esotropia in children and adolescents. Methods. Within the period from January 1st 2006 to February 1st 2007 at the Clinic for Ophtalmology, Military Medical Academy, Belgrade a total of 25 patients with esotropia (34 eyes) and previously corrected refraction anomaly and treated amblyopia were operated on. The patients were 4-19-year of age. All of the patients were submitted to a complete ophtalmologic and orthoptic examination prior to the surgery, and a month, three months and six months after the surgery. The surgery was performed under general anesthesia. Out of the total number of the patients nine were operated on both eyes, while 16 patients on one eye with amblyopia or frequent esodeviation. Nine patients were submitted to retroposition of the inner straight muscle, two to myectomy of the outer straight muscle, while in 14 of the patients a combination of retroposition and myectomy was performed. The patients were divided into three groups according to the preoperative angle at the distance and followed-up accordingly after the surgery. Deviation angle at the distance in the group I was 18-25 DP, in the group II 26-35 PD, while in the group III it was 36-60 PD. Results. The most numerous, group I (12 patients; 48%), a month following the surgery showed angle reduction by 55.58%, after three months 63.25%, and after six months 63.92%. The group II consisted of 8 patients (32%) showed angle reduction by 70.75% a month following the surgery, by 76% after three months, and by 79.12% after six months. The group III (5 patients; 20%) showed angle reduction by 72.20% a month following the surgery, 79.20 after three months, and 80.12% after six months following the surgery. Conclusion. The best postoperative outcomes after a month, three and six months were obtained in the group of patients with the highest esodeviation angle at the distance solved by the surgery on both eyes. Timely surgical treatment befell into major precondition for developing and maintaining the elements of binocular vision in the operated on patients. .

The aim of the study was to conduct a comparative evaluation of the effectiveness of surgical treatment of acute ascending thrombophlebitis of the great saphenous vein using the endovascular high-frequency welding technique and traditional phlebectomy. Materials and methods: Two groups were formed in the conducted study. Group I included patients (n=42) with the acute ascending thrombophlebitis of the great saphenous vein, in whom their thrombosed great saphenous vein was removed using the endovascular high-frequency welding technique. As a source of current, an EK300M1 Svarmed electric welding machine (Ukraine) was used. Electric welding of a thrombosed vein segment was carried out using the endovenous electric welding catheter. Group II included patients (n=31) with the acute ascending thrombophlebitis of the great saphenous vein, who underwent the traditional phlebectomy of the thrombosed great saphenous vein according to Babcock’s technique. Results: In group I no patient revealed presence of pain syndrome with significant intensity during the postoperative period. An infiltrate along the coagulated segments of the great saphenous vein, postoperative oedema and paresthesiae were observed in considerably fewer cases from group I versus group II (р=0.0005, р=0.0001, р=0.0018). During their follow-up for more than 12 months, 2 (4.76 %) of 42 patients from group I revealed partial recanalization of the great saphenous vein (р=0.632). In group I the postoperative inpatient period was 1.3±0.1 days. In group II the above period averaged 4.8±0.8 days (p<0.001). Absence of an intense pain syndrome in group I was caused by a gentle effect of high-frequency electric current itself on the venous wall and paravasal structures. A significant reduction of side effects and complications with a shorter stay of patients in hospital versus the traditional phlebectomy was achieved owing to reduction in the extent of injury of the surgical operation itself with the use of endovascular high-frequency welding. Conclusions: The technique of endovascular high-frequency welding in treatment of acute ascending thrombophlebitis of the great saphenous vein makes it possible to reduce the extent of injury of the surgical operation versus the traditional phlebectomy, results in a significant decrease in the number of side effects and complications and shortens the period of the patient’s stay in hospital.
