Objective. Improvement of the treatment results of an acute pancreatitis in pregnant women, using enhanced early diagnosis and tactics of treatment. Маterials and methods. Analysis of the diagnosis and treatment results was conducted in 123 pregnant women, suffering an acute pancreatitis. In the main group (61 pregnant women) the elaborated algorithm of diagnosis and treatment for an acute pancreatitis in the period 2012 - 2018 yrs was applied, while in a comparison group (62 pregnant women) - the standard methods of diagnosis and treatment in an acute pancreatitis for the period of 2006 - 2012 yrs. Results. In the main group in 100% of the patients an acute pancreatitis was revealed on early stage. This have had guaranteed the effect obtaining from the conservative therapy in 27 (44.3%) pregnant women, using miniinvasive surgical interventions - in 31 (50.8%) and to prevent postoperative lethality. In a comparison group in 26 (41.9%) patients an acute pancreatitis diagnosis was established in (8 ± 2.1) days after the disease beginning. In a comparison group the conservative treatment effect was observed in 21 (33.9%) patients only. Two (3.2%) pregnant women died. Conclusion. Application of the diagnostic-treatment algorithm, comparing with standard methods, permits to diagnose an acute pancreatitis in pregnant women on early stage, to reduce the complications and lethality rate.

In the current era of minimally invasive surgeries, laparoscopic cholecystectomy being the popular surgery for the symptomatic cholelithiasis and complications pertaining to these minimally invasive surgeries, here we report a complication related to gall stone spillage after 4 months of surgery in 80-year male patient presenting as abdomen lump. The risk of stone spillage and complications related to it are more than open cholecystectomy. Careful dissection, extraction and complete retrieval of all the spilled stones can avoid these complications and hence complication related to stone spillage can be potentially avoided, and intra-operative documentation of the gall stone spillage can help to think for early diagnosis and treatment of the complications.

Abstract Background Early diagnosis of meningitis with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) would be useful for appropriate and effective management, decrease morbidity and mortality, and provide better diagnosis and treatment. The objective of the current study is to compare the accuracy of contrast-enhanced FLAIR (CE-FLAIR) and contrast-enhanced T1WI (CE-T1WI) in the detection of meningeal abnormalities in suspected cases of meningitis. Results Out of 45 patients, 37 patients were confirmed to have meningitis on CSF analysis. Out of the 37 patients, 34 patients were positive on CE-FLAIR sequence and 27 were positive on CE-T1WI. The sensitivity of CE-FLAIR sequence was 91.9% and specificity 100%, while the sensitivity of CE-T1WI sequence was 73% and specificity 100%. Conclusion CE-FLAIR is more sensitive than CE-T1WI in diagnosis of meningitis. It is recommended to be used in any cases with clinically suspected meningitis.
