[Management of patients with pyogenic complications of long bones open fractures].

122 patients with purulent complications of open diaphyseal fractures of long bones were treated. Comparative analysis of different surgical methods for treatment of pyogenic complications has shown that the most effective method is one of active sanation of the area of inflammation with the use of combined drainage ensured successful and steady decrease of pyogenic process (follow-up up to 4 years, 89.7% of patients). The drainage provides stable fixation of bones fragments by dipped fixators until consolidation of the fracture. It also promotes repain of residual diaphyseal defects without application of complicated plastic methods.

[The dynamics of the wound microflora in the victims of the earthquake in Armenia].

The data on the composition of wound microflora, as well as changes in the contamination index over the course of treatment of patients with the syndrome of prolonged compression, who were brought to the institute after the earthquake in Armenia, are presented. The authors characterize the structure of the causative agents of wound infection in the patients treated at the traumatological department of the institute over several years. The epidemiological situation in the hospital in the period when the earthquake victims were treated there is analyzed.

[Treatment of open injuries in the victims of the earthquake in Armenian SSR].

The results of treatment of 36 patients injured during the earthquake in Armenia are analyzed. The patients had severe traumas: open injuries to the limbs, complicated by nephro- and hepatopathies. The periods of the limb crushing with fragments of ruined buildings varied from 3 hours to 3 days. The treatment modalities included conservative and operative detoxication (hemoperfusion, hemodiafiltration, hemofiltration, prolonged endolymphatic infusions of drugs), active surgical strategy, rehabilitation of patients. Seven amputations, 7 reamputations, and 21 necrectomies were performed in 36 patients by vital indications; no lethal outcomes were recorded. Restorative skin plasty was performed in 14 patients with 19 limb stumps, with good functional outcomes. The patients were directed to the Central Research Institute of Prosthetics to be supplied with prostheses. Only in 3 patients with the upper limb crushing the development of stable ischemic contractures could not be prevented.

[Sensitivity of the causative agents of suppurative-inflammatory diseases to medical bacteriophages].

Sensitivity to therapeutic bacteriophages and antibiotics of 2063 cultures causing purulent inflammatory diseases was studied. Sensitivity of Staph. aureus to therapeutic bacteriophages was higher (88.5%) than that to benzylpenicillin (33.7%), ampicillin (64.3%), erythromycin (53.7%) and close to that to aminoglycosides, tetracycline, lincomycin and chloramphenicol. The number of Ps. aeruginosa strains sensitive to the phages amounted to 67.1%. E. coli and Proteus were sensitive to therapeutic bacteriophages in 32.4 and 29% of the cultures respectively. All of the streptococcal strains isolated from the patients were resistant to phages. A favourable clinical effect of phages was observed in 37 out of 80 patients. The results of the study showed the advisability of the wide use of bacteriophages in combined treatment of purulent inflammatory diseases.
