[Minimally invasive methods for treatment of cholelithiasis, complicated by choledocholithiasis].

Disease of the common bile duct (choledochal duct) was revealed in 18 from 531 patients with bile tract lithiasis (3.4%), who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy and in 3 of 72 patients (5.4%), who underwent cholecystectomy through minilaparotomy approach. Stenosis of the large duodenal papilla was observed in 14 patients, choledocholithiasis in 9 patients. Endoscopic papillosphincterotomy (EPST) was performed in all cases. There were no complications. In 2 cases moderate amylasemia was detected. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed 5 days after the procedure on the large duodenal papilla (5.1 days mean). Intervention with the use of mini-approach after EPST was carried out in patient with concrement of gall bladder duct stump, which was revealed 3 months after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Mini-approach made it possible to perform reconstructive operations on bile ducts in combination with cholecystectomy in 3 patients. At present there are many tools which enable combined treatment of the bile tract lithiasis complicated by bile ducts pathology with low-invasive technique.

[Low-invasive interventions in abdominal surgery].

Low-invasive interventions have now become the usual practice of a surgical unit. Nowadays operations on abdominal and small pelvic organs can be made by using the Russian equipment. In all, more than half the patients with cholelithiasis and its complications, chronic appendicitis, inguinal hernias were operated on by employing video endoscopic equipment (Endomedium, Kazan) and miniaccess-intervention instruments (SAN, Yekaterinburg). The outcomes of surgical treatment are summarized in the paper. The benefits and drawbacks of low-invasive intervention procedures, the advantages of various operation in different groups of patients are dealt with. The feasibility of combined operations and treatment in patients with cholelithiasis is discussed.

[Determination of likelihood of the development of pleural empyema in patients with cancer after pneumonectomy].

Management of 150 patients with lung cancer after pneumonectomy has shown that the basic factors causing the onset of postoperative pleural empyema are chronic nonspecific pulmonary diseases, pronounced obstructive syndrome and right heart overload, tumor histology, local tumor size and cancer complications, duration and techniques of surgery, duration of controlled lung ventilation, as well as the onset of postoperative suppurative tracheobronchitis and surgical wound suppuration. The likelihood of empyema development may be assessed only upon analysis of the combination of risk factors with reference to their low informative value, preoperative patients' condition and intraoperative factors which have an equal impact on the onset of this complication. The efficacy of the algorithm elaborated is as follows: if the likelihood of empyema development exceeds 50%, it occurs in 96.3% of cases, if the likelihood of the complication is less than 10%, the postoperative period is uncomplicated in 87.8% of patients.
