[Comparative evaluation of endoscopic hemostatic methods in gastroduodenal ulcer hemorrhage].

An experience with using various methods of endoscopic hemostasis for bleeding gastroduodenal ulcers is presented. The efficiency of different methods of arresting the bleedings depending on localization of the ulcer, place of the bleeding vessel and activity of the hemorrhage is discusses. The frequency of hemorrhages was shown to depend of the phase of the ulcer disease. A conclusion is made about high efficiency of using the combined endoscopic hemostasis as compared with using each of the methods of arresting the hemorrhage separately.

[The choice of the treatment procedure in complicated forms of gallstones].

The article is devoted to an assessment of results of treatment of patients with complicated forms of cholelithiasis. Results of the treatment with active surgical measures and use of the endoscopic surgery methods are compared. Advantages of using endoscopy in algorithm of diagnostic and medical measures are shown. Recommendations are given concerning the terms and consequence of using the endoscopic methods of treatment.

[Fiber gastroscopy as the first stage in screening for diseases of the upper gastrointestinal tract].

The article presents data of 284 out of 3400 endoscopic investigations as a method of primary examination in screening of pathology of the upper parts of the gastro-intestinal tract. They show advantages of screening gastroscopy over multistage screening investigations and generally accepted clinico-instrumental tests in forming the groups of risk in oncology and surgical gastroenterology.

[Laparoscopy in penetrating abdominal injuries].

An experience with treatment of 138 patients with penetrating punctured-incised wounds of the abdominal cavity has shown advantages of laparoscopy in diagnostics of the character of injuries of internals. Laparoscopy used in cases with difficult diagnosis allowed to give up operative interventions in 53.8% of patients. High diagnostic value and relative safety of laparoscopy make it possible to widely use this method in wounds of the abdomen.

[The pathogenesis of pulmonary complications in severe craniocerebral trauma].

The paper summaries authors' experience with lifetime and postmortem pulmonary changes in 223 victims with severe craniocerebral injury, as well as the data available in literature on this point. The investigations have shown that microcirculatory disorders make a great contribution to the development of pulmonary complications and revealed specific feature of the natural history of the shock lung in patients with severe craniocerebral injury. The paper provides strong evidence for the neurotrophic pattern of pulmonary complications and proposes a scheme of their development in this injury.

[Early changes in the bronchial tree and their role in the pathogenesis of pneumonia in the acute period of severe craniocerebral trauma].

Changes of the bronchial tree revealed during sanative fiber bronchoscopy in the first 24 hours of the acute period of severe craniocerebral trauma were studied in 57 patients. Analysis of the results made it possible to identify the components of the obstructive syndrome, its dependence on the side and level of injury to the brain, to determine the terms of disappearance of the bronchial obstruction and the number of sanative endoscopies. Comparison with the results of treatment of 75 similar patients without bronchoscopy showed the role of the obstructive syndrome in the development of pneumonia in severe craniocerebral trauma.

[Pathogenesis and prevention of pneumonia in patients with severe craniocerebral trauma].

The results of endoscopic studies of the bronchial tree have been assessed in 150 patients during the acute period of craniocerebral trauma. A correlation has been established between the side and degree of the brain stem damage and the onset of asymmetrical bronchomalacia. The development and signs of the obstructive syndrome within a 2-week post-traumatic period have been demonstrated. The incidence of destructive pneumonia has reduced four-fold. It is concluded that endoscopy of the bronchial tree is highly effective for the prevention of pneumonia in the acute period of severe craniocerebral trauma.
