Introduction. Catamenial pneumothorax is one of the most difficult to diagnose types of spontaneous pneumothorax in women. The cause of the latter is ectragenital localization of endometriosis. To date, there is no clear pathogenetically determined treatment and treatment algorithm for the management of this category of patients. Objective: to analyze and structure our own experience in the treatment of catamenial pneumothorax. Materials and methods. For the period 2011–2020 in the Thoracoabdominal Department of the SI "Zaytcev Institute of General and Emergency Surgery of the National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine" 7 women with catamenial pneumothorax were on inpatient treatment. Results. After additional examination, all patients underwent draining of the pleural cavity with Bulau as the first stage after the diagnosis was established. At the second stage, all patients underwent minimally invasive surgical interventions – videothoracoscopic resection of the endometriosis-affected areas of the costal parietal pleura and diaphragm, mechanical pleurarasion and pleurodesis, using fibrin-collagen plates in the areas of diaphragm defects. There were no postoperative complications or deaths. Conclusion. In the treatment of extragenital endometriosis complicated by catamenial pneumothorax, not only thoracic surgeons, but also obstetrician-gynecologists should take part in order to create multidisciplinary commissions aimed primarily at determining the pathogenetically determined treatment tactics. Key words: extragenital endometriosis, catamenial pneumothorax, videothoracoscopy, surgical treatment.

Objective. To determine the character and optimal volume of standard open surgical interventions in an acute complicated pancreatitis (ACP) with elaboration of the main technical elements of the operations. Маterials and methods. There were operated 96 patients, suffering ACP. The main group consisted of 47 patients, in whom open interventions were performed primarily in 19, and as the second-stage procedure after application of miniinvasive interventional technologies (МIТ) – in 28. The comparison group consisted of 49 patients, in whom standard operations were done only. Results. Application of MIТ have promoted the indications narrowing for performance of primary open operations more than twice. In the main group the arcuate-like subcostal access was applied predominantly - in 26 (55%) observations (χ²=14.287; р=002), while in a control one – a median upper laparotomy – in 37 (76%) observations (χ²=38.43, р < 0.001). The method of closed draining in accordance to procedure of Beger was used predominantly in the main group of patients – in 43% of observations, comparing with a control group - 9% of observations (χ²=12.965; р=0.003). In 23% patients of the main group and in 26% patients of a control one (χ²=0.0013; р=0.05), when the extended purulent-necrotic inflammation process have presented, a staged sanation was applied, using programmed relaparotomies. Some technical elements of the surgical intervention were improved. Conclusion. Application of standard open operations in accordance to elaborated principle is accompanied by improvement of the treatment results in patients, suffering ACP.

Introduction. Therapy of malignant tumors is one of the most important problems of modern pediatric oncology. The presence of distant metastases is considered as the main sign of generalization of the tumor process. In order to improve the results of treatment of these patients, we proposed to supplement cytoreductive surgery with intraoperative isolated chemoperfusion of the lung and/or pleura with cytostatic. The purpose of the study is to determine the effectiveness of metastasectomy combined with isolated lung/pleura chemoperfusion (ILCP/PCP) under conditions of hyperoxia in children. Materials and methods. For 10 years of research (2008–2018) on the basis of the N.N. Petrov National Medical Research Center of Oncology produced 45 ILCP and PCP in 30 patients with intrapulmonary and intrapleural metastases of various malignant bone tumors. The ILCP method is a surgical procedure, during which the lung is temporarily switched off from the circulation and perfused with modified saline containing high concentrations of an antitumor drug (melphalan or cisplatin), which allows delivery of high doses of cytostatics while avoiding systemic exposure to the drug. In cases of detection of metastatic lesions of the parietal pleura after metastasectomy, PCP was performed, consisting in drainage of the pleural cavity and intraoperatively conducting, after suturing the surgical wound, hyperthermic (42 o С) chemoperfusion of the pleural cavity with a cisplatin solution for 2 hours. Results. In children with malignant bone tumors, 37 isolated chemoperfusions with cisplatin and 8 with melphalan were performed. In 27 patients, 36 ILCP were performed, in 7 patients – 9 PCP. Nine (20 %) patients underwent bilateral perfusion with an interval from 1.5 to 31 months. There were no lethal outcomes during operations and in the postoperative period. The average duration of surgical interventions was 270 ± 90 (120–520) minutes. The number of remote foci – from 1 to 56 (average value – 9). The average blood loss was 300 ± 200 (150–1000) ml. The mean follow-up was 45 months; median overall survival – 38 months; 3-year overall survival – 65.5 ± 9.4 %. Survival without progression – 40.5 ± 10.5 % (n = 30). Conclusions. ILCP/PCP with cytostatics is a method of complex therapy that can improve the quality and increase the life expectancy of patients, especially with the exhausted possibility of other treatment options.

The aim of the study was to improve the results of treatment of patients with descending purulent mediastinitis by means of individualized surgical tactics with the priority use of minimally invasive surgical interventions and developed methods of drainage of the mediastinum and pleural cavity. Examination and treatment of 73 patients with descending purulent mediastinitis receiving treatment in the department of thoracic surgery of Ivano-Frankivsk regional clinical hospital was carried out. Treatment of patients in the main group included intramediastinal administration of antibiotics, the use of the developed method of cascade drainage of the mediastinum and pleural cavity, the priority use of video-assisted thoracoscopy and surgical tactics aimed at anticipating the spread of the purulent process in the mediastinum. The rapid and reliable decrease in the indices of endogenous intoxication in the main group confirms the effectiveness of the developed tactics of surgical treatment of patients with mediastinitis, adequate sanation of purulent mediastinatis, complete removal of the purulent substrate from the mediastinum and pleural cavity. The developed tactics of surgical treatment of purulent mediastinitis allowed reducing the overall postoperative mortality from 26.3% in the comparison group to 11.4% in the main group of patients.

Abstract Background Catamenial pneumothorax is characterized by spontaneous recurring pneumothorax during menstruation, which is a common clinical manifestation of thoracic endometriosis syndrome. There are still controversies about its pathogenesis. Case presentation A 43-year-old woman with a history of endometriosis came to our hospital due to recurring pneumothorax during menstruation. Uniportal Video-assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) exploration was performed on the eve of menstruating. We thoroughly explored the diaphragm, visceral and parietal pleura: The lung surface was scattered with yellowish-brown implants; no bullae were found; multiple diaphragmatic defects were found on the dome. And surprisingly, we caught a fascinating phenomenon: Bubbles were slipping into pleural cavity through diaphragmatic defects. We excised the diaphragmatic lesions and wedge resected the right upper lung lesion; cleared the deposits and flushed the thoracic cavity with pure iodophor. Diaphragmatic lesions confirmed the presence of endometriosis, and interestingly enough, microscopically, endometrial cells were shedding with impending menses. After a series of intraoperative operations and postoperative endocrine therapy, the disease did not recur after a period of follow-up. Conclusion We have witnessed the typical signs of catamenial pneumothorax at the accurate timing: Not only observed the process of gas migration macroscopically, but also obtained pathological evidence of diaphragmatic periodic perforation microscopically, which is especially precious and confirms the existing theory that retrograde menstruation leads to diaphragmatic endometriosis, and the diaphragmatic fenestration is obtained due to the periodic activities of ectopic endometrium.

Surgical Manipulation

Most authors considered pleural cavity drainage to be the main method of treatment of acute pleural empyema using minor surgery. Despite the simplicity of drainage of the pleural cavity, the number of complications after this surgical manipulation, according to the reports of some authors, varies from 3 to 8 %. The complications of pleural drainage in the patients with acute nonspecific pleural empyema have been studied and the technique of pleural drainage "blindly" has been introduced, which allows drainage to be located along the chest wall. At the first stage of the four−stage study, the complications of pleural drainage in 38 patients with acute nonspecific pleural empyema were analyzed, at the second stage a device for drainage of the pleural cavity "blindly" was developed to place drainage in parallel to the chest wall, at the third stage patients were tested; on IV −− drainage of the pleural cavity of 34 patients was performed according to the proposed method. The reason for the development of drainage complications in the pleural cavity of patients with acute pleural empyema was the inadequate location of drainage in the pleural cavity, drainage of the pleural cavity was carried out in general hospitals without the use of thoracoscopic equipment. Curved thoracoport with trocar for a blind drainage of the pleural cavity "blindly" was developed and introduced into clinical practice. This technique eliminates the involuntary location of the drainage in the pleural cavity, installing it along the chest wall, and is safe. Complications associated with drainage of the pleural cavity according to the developed method using a curved thoracoport with a trocar, inadequate location of drainage, were not observed in patients. Key words: acute pleural empyema, pleural cavity drainage, curved trocar.

The aim of the work was to improve the results of surgical treatment of complicated forms of chronic pancreatitis. Materials and methods: The results of surgical treatment of 181 patients with complicated forms of chronic pancreatitis have been analyzed. All these patients were treated in surgical clinic of 2 nd medical faculty of National Pyrogov Memorial Medical University in Vinnytsya. Results: It is possible preoperative indirectly assess the severity of fibro- degenerative changes in pancreas, that includes 1 – the definition of pain type; 2 – CT or MRI (Marseilles- Rome classification); 3 – assessment of the stage of chronic pancreatitis (Büchler classification); 4 – patient&#39;s nutrition status and preoperative differential diagnosis with pancreatic cancer; 5 – assessment of the fibrosis severity (elastomers). The key point in treatment depended on intraoperative examination: detection of strictures of the main pancreatic duct (pacemaker of chronic pancreatitis); the tissue pressure resistance to the liquid, which is the maximum value&gt; 200 mmHg, in the region of stricture and falls in other parts of the pancreas; pressure in the main pancreas duct, which rises only in 59.5% of patients. The head of the pancreas was involved in the pathological process in 83.8%, in 16.2% it was isolated in the isthmus or the body and tail of the pancreas. In general, the distal pancreas was involved in 37.8%. At computer morphometry of histological samples, the area of connective tissue fields reached 81.4 ± 6.62%, preserved exocrine part in 4.87 ± 1.62%, endocrine – 1.92 ± 0.12%, total area of ducts – 6 , 47 ± 1.12%. Conclusions: The combined Frey-Izbickiy local resection provides a wide excision of the pacemaker (stricture) of chronic pancreatitis. In case of extrapancreatic complications or repeated surgical interventions on the pancreas due to chronic pancreatitis, this effect can be achieved by pancreatoduodenal resection.

Summary. The arms — to analyze the evolution of the development of modern surgical instruments in gunshot wounds chest. Materials and methods. 80 cases of using a modern magnetic surgical instrument for penetrating gunshot wounds of the chest were analyzed. Intraoperatively used: a magnetic multifunctional tool for the diagnosis and removal of metallic ferromagnetic foreign bodies, a flexible device for removing ferromagnetic foreign bodies, a magnetic tool for endovideoscopic diagnosis and removal of metallic ferromagnetic foreign bodies from the abdominal and pleural cavities, a magnetic nozzle for video endoscopic surgical interventions. When removing metal foreign bodies, the following methods were used: a method for preliminary determination of the material and properties of a foreign body, a method for video endoscopic laser visualization of the internal organs of the abdominal and pleural cavities. Results. Foreign bodies of the pleural cavity were diagnosed in 80 (100 %) wounded according to СT. Ferromagnetic metal foreign bodies of a gunshot origin of the pleural cavity were removed both during thoracotomy or minithoracotomy, and during thoracoscopic surgical interventions using the method of video endoscopic laser visualization of the internal organs of the abdominal and pleural cavities. The most convenient tool was the endoscopic magnetic tool for removing foreign bodies from the pleural or abdominal cavities. A magnetic nozzle for video endoscopic surgical interventions allows navigation both in the pleural cavity and along the wound channel. Conclusions. 1. The development of a surgical magnetic instrument was phased and began with the improvement of a surgical magnetic instrument to remove ferromagnetic foreign bodies of soft tissues. 2. The improvement of the tool took place as the restrictions on the use of the existing tool were established, which was a prerequisite for the development of a new tool. 3. It is advisable to create a special set of surgical magnetic instruments for video endoscopic surgery.

The review presents a modern view on the features of the course and treatment of acute pancreatitis, based on a cascade of pathophysiological mechanisms of this disease. A number of concepts of development and course of acute pancreatitis on the basis of randomized prospective and retrospective researches devoted to this problem are considered. Attention is paid to the mechanisms of development of organ failure in acute pancreatitis. In accordance with the above, the main positions of treatment measures for acute pancreatitis, which are based on the principles of tactics "step-up approach" were highlighted. Among them, attention is focused on the features of the conservative treatment program, minimally invasive surgical interventions, as well as the management of the postoperative period of patients. Minimally invasive surgical interventions perform the main tasks of surgical treatment in acute pancreatitis, but significantly reduce surgical trauma compared to "open" methods. Adequate management of the postoperative period of patients is carried out through the implementation of protocols "fast-track surgery".
