[Surgical treatment of malignant tumors in the biliopancreatoduodenal zone].

Results of surgical treatment of 381 patients with cancer of biliopancreatoduodenal zone associated with obstructive jaundice were analyzed. Mean level of bilirubinemia was 182 +/- 12 mcmol/l. Cholecystoanastomosis was created in the majority of cases (51.4%). Radical surgery was carried out in 31 patients. Postoperative complications were seen in 155 (41%) patients. Renal-hepatic failure (28.1%) and purulent-septic complications (25.2%) were dominant. Lethality after radical operations was 12.9%, after palliative--15.7%. Inhibiting effect of autoplasma on phagocytosis and decrease of phagocytosis indexes 1.5-2 times are the risk factors of postoperative purulent-septic complications development. Discrete plasmapheresis reduces of postoperative purulent-septic complications rate.

[Surgical treatment of extensive hemangiomas of the liver].

The results of treatment of 7 patients with extensive hepatic hemangiomas are analysed. In 6 patients the diagnosis was established before the operation. The liver was resected in 4 patients. One patients with malignant degeneration of the hemangioma was inoperable, in another the hemangioma was not removed because of his old age, and still in another because the process had spread. The authors conclude that in large hemangiomas of the liver in young and middle-aged patients resection of the organ is indicated, especially if there is a destruction cavity and a rapid growth of hemangioma. The operation is not indicated in capillary, surface hemangiomas of a small size, old age of the patient, extension of the process in to the main vascular structures of the other hepatic lobe.
