[Cerebrospinal fluid fat globules in traumatic fat embolism].

The article is devoted to the problem of diagnosis and treatment of 28 patients with cranio-cerebral injury with posttraumatic fat embolism. In 15 of them fat liquoroglobulia was diagnosed which is a reliable symptom of the cerebral form of fat embolism. The method of detection of fat liquoroglobulia is described. A new method--liquorosorption--was used in treatment of patients with the cerebral form of fat embolism. A disturbance of the hematoencephalic barrier is thought by the authors to be possible in such embolism.

[The problem of posttraumatic fat embolism].

The article is devoted to the problem of fat embolism. In 63 patients with combined and isolated traumas the maximum frequency of fat embolism was diagnosed in the investigation of blood serum from the femoral artery. It can be supposed that no isolated injury of the lesser circulation circuit can occur in fat embolism. An investigation of the venous-arterial difference of fat globulemia has shown the main role of the so-called theory of shunting for fat embolism to be doubtful.

[Degree of the severity of fat embolism].

The authors discuss evaluation of the severity of fatty embolism. Three criteria are taken into consideration: clinical symptoms, presence of fat in the serum or liquor, and presence of fat on the surface of serum or liquor. The broth symptom is defined. The studies indicate that after detection of this symptom microscopy of the serum for detecting fatty globulemia is inefficient.

[Diagnostics of traumatic fat embolism].

The article deals with diagnosis and treatment of fat embolism concomitant with trauma. A new term is suggested, i.e. liqoroglobulism, which is concomitant with the cerebral form of fat embolism. The results of investigations of patients, who endured fat embolism, are presented. A new method is suggested for the treatment of fat embolism, i.e. a combination of hemosorption and liquosorption. A thesis on that the blood-brain barrier is damaged in the cerebral form of fat embolism is formulated.

[Some disputable issues of transfusion therapy in wounded patients].

On the basis of an analysis of the tactics of transfusion therapy in 272 wounded persons and victims with acute massive blood loss, the authors conclude that it is necessary to strictly follow the principle of individual directionality during blood transfusions. By taking into account the high risk of development of iatrogenic complications in the postshock periods of traumatic disease, it is expedient to do away with hemotransfusions in the advancing mode.
