Introduction Significant success has been achieved in the development of new methods of treatment and rehabilitation of patients with idiopathic scoliosis, however, in many aspects of this problem there is no unambiguous approach to the choice of a correction method, assessment of treatment results.Objective To study the results of treatment of patients with idiopathic scoliosis according to X-ray and MSCT data, as well as according to the questionnaire – the SRS-30, depending on the degrees of the deformity, the type of scoliosis.Material and methods The study is retrospective, single center. Evidence level – IV. In 300 patients with idiopathic scoliosis of varying severity at the age from 10 to 50 years, the immediate and long-term results of elimination of spinal deformity by the method of internal transpedicular fixation were studied. In the study we used polypositional radiography, multislice computed tomography (MSCT) and questionnaire SRS-30.Results In patients with spinal deformity up to 60 ° a year after surgery, no loss of correction was found. After elimination of the deformity at 60–90 °, loss of correction up to 2 ° was observed in 3.6% of patients. In patients with deformity greater than 90 °, the average postoperative progression of scoliotic deformity was 3.5 ± 0.7 °. When examining patients after 2–5 years, there was no loss of correction in the group with initial spinal deformity up to 60 ° and in the group from 60–90 °. In patients with deformity greater than 90 °, the postoperative progression of scoliotic deformity in persons over 25 years old was 4.5 ± 0.6 °, which is associated with degenerative changes in the spine.Conclusion The study of immediate and long-term results showed that 1 year after treatment, 94% of patients rated the treatment result as excellent and good, in 6% – as satisfactory. All patients noted a positive effect of the cosmetic and functional results of treatment, while 56% believed that they looked “better” than before surgery (4 points), 44% rated the effect at 5 points and noted that they looked “much better”. Long-term results were studied in 50 patients 10 years after surgery.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Intravenous ports serve as vascular access and are indispensable in cancer treatment. Most studies are not based on a systematic and standardized approach. Hence, the aim of this study was to demonstrate long-term results of port implantation following a standard algorithm. A total of 2950 patients who underwent intravenous port implantation between March 2012 and December 2018 were included. Data of patients managed following a standard algorithm were analyzed for safety and long-term outcomes. The cephalic vein was the predominant choice of entry vessel. In female patients, wire assistance without use of puncture sheath was less likely and echo-guided puncture via internal jugular vein (IJV) with use of puncture sheath was more likely to be performed, compared to male patients (p < 0.0001). The procedure-related complication rate was 0.07%, and no pneumothorax, hematoma, catheter kinking, catheter fracture, or pocket erosion was reported. Catheter implantations by echo-guided puncture via IJV notably declined from 4.67% to 0.99% (p = 0.027). Mean operative time gradually declined from 37.88 min in 2012 to 23.20 min in 2018. The proposed standard algorithm for port implantation reduced the need for IJV echo-guided approach and eliminated procedure-related catastrophic complications. In addition, it shortened operative time and demonstrated good functional results.

AbstractTo obtain the best possible results of treatment of acquired cholesteatoma, we made a subdivision of cholesteatoma types into attic and pars tensa cholesteatomas, and subdivided the latter further into tensa retraction cholesteatoma and sinus cholesteatomas. Tensa retraction cholesteatoma is defined as arising from a retraction or perforation of the whole pars tensa, whereas sinus cholesteatoma is defined as arising from a retraction or perforation of the postero-superior part of the tensa. We present the long-term results obtained in tensa retraction cholesteatomas treated with one stage surgery from 1964 to 1980. Median observation time was 9 years, range 2 to 19 years. Sixty-one ears were treated without mastoidectomy, whereas 71 ears had canal wall-up mastoidectomy and 64 ears had canal wall-down mastoidectomy. The total recurrence rate was 13.3 per cent; 17 ears had residual cholesteatoma, and nine ears had recurrent cholesteatoma. The best results were obtained in ears with an intact ossicular chain where mastoidectomy was not performed. In 49 per cent of the cases, the cholesteatoma was confined to the tympanic cavity without reaching the aditus, antrum or mastoid process. About one-third to one-quarter of the ears had tympanoplasty only, with removal of the cholesteatoma through the ear canal.

We followed the fate of 166 patients with limb arterial embolism in the late stage of the disease after conservative and surgical treatment from 6 months to 10 years. Of 166 patients, 44 (26.5%) died after hospital discharge. Thirty of them were older than 61 years. The most frequent causes of death in the long-term period were acute cerebrovascular disease (11), myocardial infarction (7), progressive cardiovascular insufficiency due to cardiac defects (6), repeated peripheral artery embolism causing limb gangrene (7). In 7 patients the cause of death was not determined.

Aim: To study the short-and long-term results of 2RT nanosecond laser treatment for CSC. To compare clinical results with those with AntiVEGF. Methods: Nanosecond laser (2RT, Ellex) was used. Patients were followed by BCVA, FAF, OCT, Angio-OCT. Results: 90% of the patient treated with 2RT had improvement of visual acuity and contrast sensitivity. 19 % [1] patients showed no improvement. 81% of the 2RT treated patients had total resorbtion of subretinal fluid against 60% treated with AntiVEGF. Functional results correlated with the atrophy of RPE in the macula. 46% (19 patients) had resolution on the first month, 23% [2]-on the third and 12% [3]-on the sixth month. The time of resolution shows no relation to the baseline pigment epithelial atrophy. Four patients presented with a recurrency of the disease in the follow-up period. 19% [1] were non responders. 60% of AntiVEGF treated eyes were responders and 40% were non responders. Those who responded to treatment needed between 3 and 10 injections. Conclusion: 2 RT is a non-invasive treatment modality with no adverse effects and high success rates.
