[The choice of the method for surgical intervention in the combined treatment of cancer of the oral mucosa in the retromolar space].

Combined treatment of 30 patients with stage III-IV squamous-cell carcinoma of the retromolar mucosa, including radiotherapy in a dose of 43 Gy at the first stage of treatment, was carried out. The second stage consisted of two types of combined operations. Modified combined intervention suggested by P. G. Bitiutskiĭ et al., the results of which were followed up for 2 years and found satisfactory, is preferable to previously employed operation, for it is conducive to a more rapid functional rehabilitation of patients.

[Function-sparing surgery in the combined therapy of laryngeal cancer].

The reports deals with the principle and methods of making a two-stage diagnosis of laryngeal tumor evolved on the basis of the data on two calibrated groups of 250 patients each and a computer-supported procedure of mathematical analysis. Two programs for a MC-52 microcalculator are suggested to select the scope of surgical intervention. Such procedures of preoperative radiation therapy as exposure under hyperbaric oxygenation conditions, cutting down the preoperative radiation dosage and shortening the interval between ir radiation course and surgery have been improved. Five improved procedures of saving therapy for tumors of the supraglottic area and four--for glottic cancer were used in 142 patients. The functional and oncological results of saving surgery were evaluated in 458 patients receiving combined treatment for laryngeal tumors. Said results were found to be beneficial.

[Experience with conducting programmed labor].

An analysis was made of programmed labours in 128 high-risk females having relative indications for cesarean section. Oxytocin or prostaglandin was used as a uterine-contracting agents. The dosage, rate and duration of drug administration were adjusted by the values of uterine activity and the rate of cervical dilatation. In the latent phase (up to 4-5 cm) the optimal dilatation rate was considered to be 1 cm/h in primiparas, 1.5 cm/h in multiparas; in the active period (over 5 cm), that was 1.5 and 2.0 cm/h, respectively. The optimal labour duration was at least 10-12 hours in primiparas and at least 8 hours in multiparas. One hundred and sixteen (90.6%) females delivered vaginally without any delivery operations. Twelve (9.4%) delivered via cesarean section. All 128 babies were liveborn. It has been concluded that programmed labour is a sparing tool of delivery in high-risk pregnant who have no indications for cesarean section.

[A method of combined horizontal resection of the larynx with removal of the arytenoid cartilage and its primary reconstruction].

A modified technique of combined laryngeal resection in vestibular cancer T3-T4 (involvement of the arytenoid cartilage) was tried in 8 patients. To compensate for laryngeal separative function after the radical surgery, the reconstruction of the posterior laryngeal wall was performed by mobilization of the upper corniculum of the thyroid cartilage. In satisfactory functional results the method did not contribute to the disease aggravation.

Arytenoid Cartilage↗

[The use of ultrasonic tomography for assessing the spread of a primary tumor of the mucosa in the retromolar area and for choosing the surgical treatment method].

Ultrasonic examination was carried out in 31 patients with stage III-IV squamous-cell carcinoma of the retromolar mucosa. Dissemination of the tumor of the retromolar triangle into the stomach was detected in 14, into the adjacent anatomical structures in 6 patients. Combined operations with inclusion into the block of removed tissues of the involved structures were carried out due to the information obtained. The data of ultrasonic tomography were confirmed by morphologic examinations of removed preparations.
