[Double-cross repair in spinal hernias in children].

The double-cross plasty with preservation of tunics and placement their edges under the back muscles has been developed and clinically used in 31 cases for prevention of hydrocephalus and firm defect closing in patients with spinal hernia. Muscular-fascial plasty has been used in 84 patients of the control group. Ultrasound examination of hernia sac and the brain itself has been done prior to the surgery. The histological analyses of hernia sac's wall has been done to determine the optimal age for performing surgery. According to the results of the study this age is 10 days, 4, 6 and 8 months. Tunics are more firm and well vascularize to these times. In elder patients the tunics will vascularize to these times. In elder patients the tunics will scar and that will cause disorders of haemo-liquor circulation. According to the results of clinical cases this method may be recommended for clinical use because of hydrocephalus stabilization.

[Treatment of hematogenic osteomyelitis in newborns].

The authors studied the immunobiological condition of the newborn's organism and the process of bone structure reparation before and after direct immune hemotransfusions and transplantation of bone marrow with the stroma in a mixture with antibiotics into the focus of osteomyelitis in the bone of newborn infants with consideration for the clinical manifestations of the disease, the stage of osteomyelitis, and the efficacy of the applied treatment. The authors examined 215 newborns with acute hematogenous osteomyelitis. The predominant site of localization of acute hematogenous osteomyelitis in the newborn infants were the epimetaphyseal (54.5%) and metaphyseal (39.6%) parts of the long tubular bones. The donors were immediate relatives compatible according to the ABO system and the rhesus factor, who underwent complete examination for HIV infection, the Australia antigen, and the Wasserman reaction, and who were immunized preliminarily with the staphylococcus anatoxin. The authors note the favorable immediate and late-term results of treatment which were confirmed by radiological restoration of the bone structure. The immunological values testify to increase of cellular and humoral immunity. Study of the late-term results of treatment confirm the decrease of the number of orthopedic complications.
