[Hemosorption in multimodal treatment of endogenous uveitis].

Hemoperfusion was used in multiple modality treatment of 92 patients with chronic recurrent endogenic uveitis and uveitis associated with syndromic conditions. The treatment included systemic and local steroids, and antiinflammatory therapy. Clinical improvement was achieved in 75 percent of patients; it was paralleled by improvement of the vision acuity. In the rest patients vision acuity was unchanged because of irreversible impairment of the retina and optic nerve, but uveitis ceased. Addition of hemoperfusion of multiple-modality treatment of uveitis patients resulted in shortening of hospital stay by 6-7 days, in prolongation of remission periods to 10-15 months after a single course of hemoperfusion in 71 percent of patients and after two courses in the rest. A dynamic immunologic analysis has shown normalization of T lymphocyte functional activity, and of blood serum immunoglobulin and circulating immune complexes levels.

[Adoptive laser immunotherapy and photodynamic therapy in ORL oncology].

Present-day developments in oncological applications of laser therapy are adaptive laser immunotherapy (ALIT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT). ALIT (helium-neon laser) was used in 35 ENT-cancer patients to irradiate immunocompetent leukocytes isolated from blood in an Amino cell separator. The use of ALIT in the combined treatment of our patients improved their health condition. Cytological, immunochemical and immunological examinations of blood revealed an increased count of activated lymphocytes, normalization of acute-phase proteins, stimulation of cell-mediated immunity and nonspecific resistance. The pharmacokinetics and photodynamic activity of porphyrin compounds in mice with inoculated tumors were investigated. Experimental observations demonstrated that the application of photodynamic therapy of hematoporphyrins in ENT-oncology seems very promising.

[Experience in the use of extracorporeal correction of the immune system in the treatment of patients with LOR cancer].

Correction of the immune status is one of the burning problems of current otorhinolaryngology. Recent developments in immunology allow interference at the cellular level. However, otorhinolaryngological practice is still based on oral, parenteral or local use of ineffective drugs. This paper presents early results of the application of extracorporeal cytapheresis combined with the modulator treatment of lymphocytes for the surgical therapy of 25 patient with ENT malignant neoformations of different stage and localization. Leukocytapheresis, i. e. separation of leukocytes, was performed by means of an Aminco (USA) or FK-3,5 (USSR) cell separator and the separated cells were treated with diuciphone. This method yielded good results as suggested by immunological, immunochemical, biophysical, and cytological measurements of blood. The method seems promising for ENT-cancer therapy.

[Purification of biological fluids by sorbents on a base of industrial activated charcoal].

The authors propose using industrial activated carbon as a base for hemosorbents and show the methods of choosing the optimal size of the sorbent grain. The results of using the column with a pseudo-liquefied layer and the apparatus with an unfixed layer of hemosorbent are given. Using enterosorption was proposed for the treatment of a number of disorders including allergic diseases.
