[Arterial and venous fistulas of duodenal-biliary zone].

Causes of gastrointestinal bleedings in patients treated from 1995 to 2001 were analyzed. Rare causes of bleeding were studied particularly. Four cases of patients hospitalized urgently for gastrointestinal bleeding are described in detail. In autopsy of these patients different variants of vascular fistulas of duodenobiliary zone were revealed: fistula of aneurysm of abdominal aorta with blood bursting into horizontal part of the duodenum (2 cases), fistula between diverticulum of proximal part of jejunum and abdominal aorta (1), choledochoportal fistula (1). Clinical and anatomical correlations differential-diagnostic difficulties were analyzed.

[Occlusive ileus in colonic cancer].

The experience of treatment is available for 404 patients with mechanical obstruction in cancer of the colon. Clinicoroentgenological and ultrasound examinations of the organs of abdominal cavity provided early diagnosis of the disease. Radical operations were carried out in 59.7% of the patients, palliative ones--in 40.3%. Radical right-sided hemicolectomy was completed by creation of ileotransversoanastomosis, in left-sided hemicolectomy it was obligatory to take out both ends of the resected colon (if it is possible technically and later restoration of its continuity is planned), or the operation of Hartmann type was performed. The operation should be completed in bowel decompression by nasointestinal intubation. It should be used the term "resolved" or "unresolved" bowel obstruction after the performance of conservative measures, and the term "partial bowel obstruction" should not be used as it presents formulation of treatment policy and may be the cause of undue delay of the operation.

[Erroneous laparotomies in emergency surgery].

The retrospective analysis of case histories of 28 patients subjected to erroneous laparotomies in 1988-1992 has been done. The total number of patients, who had urgent abdominal operations for this period of time, was 5115. Atypical clinical course of the disease, improper diagnosis and interpretation of the disease symptoms, senile age of the patient are major causes of the erroneous laparotomies. To avoid erroneous laparotomy laparoscopy and ultrasound examination of abdominal cavity should be used widely, other medical specialists (urologist, gynaecologist) should be involved in diagnosis, especially in senile patients.

[Adaptation of regulatory physiological systems in surgical treatment of patients with bronchial asthma].

Selective denervation of the lung (SDL) has been conducted in 389 patients with bronchial asthma. This operation stimulates function of Tg-suppressors, enhances the activity of blocked adrenergic structures and glucocorticoid supply, attenuates adrenal and extraadrenal insufficiency. SDL is thought pathogenetically validated in bronchial asthma with deficient suppression, generalized adrenodeficiency, combined glucocorticoid insufficiency.

[Effectiveness of lecedil (famotidine) in the therapy of patients with peptic ulcer].

A total of 30 patients (29 with peptic ulcer and 2 with erosive gastroduodenitis) received lecedil, a new famotidine blocker of histamine H2-receptors. The effect of the drug was not related to the dose regimen (20 mg twice or 40 once a day). In good tolerance side effects were not reported. Healing of duodenal ulcer occurred within 4 and 5 treatment weeks in 17 (85.0%) and 19 (95.0%) out of 20 patients, respectively, within 6 and 8 treatment weeks ulcer healed in 5 and 6 out of 8 gastric ulcer patients, respectively.

[Status of the regulatory systems and substantiation of the indicators for conservative and surgical treatments of patients with bronchial asthma].

Immunological reactivity, sympathetic-adrenal+ and pituitary-adrenal systems were studied in 758 patients with bronchial asthma. The results served the basis for construction of 4 adaptogram types which reflect the status of adaptation. Therapeutic and surgical indications are suggested for bronchial asthma sufferers allowing for the relationship between standard conservative treatment, modification of immunity, various surgical interventions and adaptation status.

[Significance of radiological examination of the lungs in determining the extent of surgery in patients with bronchial asthma].

Indications for various types of operative intervention in 411 patients (among 986 patients who were examined in a specialized pulmonological department) were determined according to the degree of functional and morphological changes of the respiratory tract by means of complex radiological examination together with other modern methods (radioisotope, immunological, bronchological, etc.) for examination of the bronchopulmonary system in bronchial asthma.
