Nonspecific Ulcer

Complex treatment of patients with nonspecific ulcerative colitis is one of the most difficult problems of modern gastroenterology and is characterized by ulcerative-destructive changes of its mucous membrane. The main indications for surgical treatment of patients with nonspecific ulcer colitis are its complications, as well as the inefficiency of multi-component conservative therapy. The case of treatment of a young patient suffering from ulcerative colitis complicated by bleeding is considered. The possibility of performing radical surgical interventions for complications of ulcerative colitis is shown. One of the most dangerous, life-threatening complications of ulcerative colitis is bleeding. Most operations in patients with bleeding are performed urgently in extremely adverse conditions, due not only to the severity of bleeding, posthemorrhagic anemia and significant violations of hemostasis, but also the presence of concomitant complications of nonspecific ulcerative colitis, as well as associated multiple organ dysfunction. Thus, during the hospitalization of the patient, which amounted to 48 days, the patient underwent 11 open surgical interventions. For proper treatment it took more than 25 liters of blood products. Attention is paid to the favorable long-term result of treatment of patients with this pathology. In the treatment of this category of patients should be aware of the possibility of using minimally invasive technologies. The urgency of the problem under consideration is increased due to the steady increase in the incidence of nonspecific ulcerative colitis, which is naturally accompanied by an increase in the frequency of complications and disability of patients, a significant part of whom are the most efficient and socially active patients aged 20-40 years, with the causes and mechanisms of their development are not fully known.

Recurrent Hiatal Hernia

Recurrent hiatal hernia is the re-displacement of the abdominal organs into the chest after surgical treatment. Indications for repeated surgical interventions for this pathology are resistant to medical correction gastroesophageal reflux or anatomical disorders, bearing the risk of developing life-threatening conditions. The key task of revision interventions is to identify and address the causes of the failure of the primary operation. The main factors of the recurrence of hernias of this localization are the large size of the hiatal opening, the mechanical weakness of the legs of the diaphragm and the shortening of the esophagus. To increase the reliability of the esophageal aperture plasty in the surgical treatment of recurrent hiatal hernias, prosthetic materials are widely used. When the esophagus is shortened, it is possible to increase its length by creating a gastric stalk (gastroplasty) or fixing the stomach to the anterior abdominal wall (gastropexy). The disadvantage of both methods is the occurring functional impairment. An alternative approach is the formation of a fundoplication wrap in the chest with the closure of the esophageal opening only with its own tissues. To eliminate or prevent the development of gastroesophageal reflux, antireflux reconstruction is an essential component of operations for recurrent hiatal hernias. The option of fundoplication is selected in accordance with the contractility of the esophagus. With normokinesia, circular fundoplication was preferred, with impaired motor skills – free reconstructions.

Introduction. Despite recent achievements in medicine, many issues in the diagnosis and treatment of infective endocarditis (IE) remain outstanding. This is mainly due both to an increase in the incidence and changes in the clinical picture of this nosology. An important factor here is the continuing presence of existing principles governing the approach to the surgical treatment of infective endocarditis, including prosthetic endocarditis.Objective: to evaluate the effectiveness of an integrated approach to the treatment of infective endocarditis in patients with valvular heart disease on the basis of 37 years of experience.Materials and methods. An analysis of the surgical treatment of 1097 patients with infectious lesions of the valvular heart apparatus was carried out. The mean age of the sample was 35.1 ± 9.7 years (from 4 months to 68 years); 67.2 % were men, while women made up 32.8 %. Additionally, 122 patients had infectious lesions affecting 2 or more valves. In 109 cases, valvular prosthetic endocarditis was diagnosed; in 37 patients, IE was detected against the background of congenital heart defects. 99 patients had perianular abscesses. Of all surgical interventions carried out, 18 were repeated, including those with non-valvular congenital heart defects.Results and discussion. Overall hospital mortality was 4.3 % (47 patients). In patients with IE complicated by a congenital heart defect (CHD), mortality was 14.7 %; with endocarditis of mechanical heart valves — 13.2 %; in drug-dependent patients — 4.5 %; with infectious destruction of native heart valves — 2.8 %; in patients with a background of electrodeinduced endocarditis, no deaths during hospitalisation were observed.Conclusions. The effectiveness of surgical intervention of infective endocarditis can reach 85.4 %. When supplemented with pathogenetic and etiotropic therapy, surgical correction of affected heart structures contributes to the rapid and reliable sanitation of all infection foci, as well as to a reduction in multiple organ failure. Timely surgery significantly reduces the degree of heart failure and improves the NYHA functional class. In the long term, reconstructive interventions contribute to a better heart recovery than prosthetic operations. It should be noted that the proposed treatment approach for this group of patients creates conditions for adequate labour and social rehabilitation in a distant postoperative period.

Представлены клинические результаты хирургического лечения доброкачественной гиперплазии предстательной железы (ДГПЖ) объемом до 100 см3 методом биполярной трансуретральной резекции простаты (БТУР -74 пациента) в сравнении с открытой чреспузырной простатэктомией (ОПЭ - 96 пациентов), ранее применявшейся для подобных клинических случаев в урологической клинике "Железнодорожной больницы" г. Волгоград. При статистически равном операционном времени обоих хирургических методов для БТУР отмечено существенное снижение интраоперационной кровопотери, сроков послеоперационной катетеризации и пребывания в стационаре, минимальная частота геморрагических и инфекционно-воспалительных осложнений. Наблюдение за урологическим статусом пациентов в течение первого послеоперационного года показало одинаковую клиническую эффективность сравниваемых хирургических методов. Значительное снижение объема кровопотери в ходе операции БТУР можно считать большим достижением, поскольку улучшение видимости в зоне хирургического вмешательства позволяет оптимизировать гемостаз, предотвратить массивные кровотечения как во время, так и после операции, сократить сроки послеоперационной катетеризации мочевого пузыря, что в свою очередь, снижает частоту развития инфекционно-воспалительных осложнений. Более быстрое восстановление пациентов после эндоскопических операций имеет медико-социальное и экономическое значение, поскольку минимальное количество послеоперационных осложнений и сокращение сроков госпитализации позволяет существенно снизить затраты на лечение и быстрее нормализовать качество жизни пациентов. Полученные результаты демонстрируют перспективность внедрения биполярных методов эндоскопических операций для лечения ДГПЖ в хирургическую практику урологических стационаров в целях повышения безопасности оперативного лечения и экономии затрат на госпитализацию. The clinical results of surgical treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) up to 100 cm3 by bipolar transurethral resection of the prostate (BTUR - 74 patients) in comparison with open transvesical prostatectomy (OPE - 96 patients), previously used for such clinical cases in the urological clinic "Railway hospital" in Volgograd are presented. With statistically equal operating time of both surgical methods, there was a significant decrease in intraoperative blood loss, the terms of postoperative catheterization and hospital stay, the minimum frequency of hemorrhagic and infectious-inflammatory complications. Observation of the urological status of patients during the first postoperative year showed the same clinical efficacy of the compared surgical methods. A significant reduction in the volume of blood loss during the operation, can be considered a great achievement, since the improvement of visibility in the area of surgical intervention allows to optimize the hemostasis, to prevent massive bleeding during and after surgery, to reduce the duration of postoperative bladder catheterization, which, in turn, reduces the incidence of infectious-inflammatory complications. Faster recovery of patients after endoscopic surgery of medical,social and economic importance, as the minimum number of postoperative complications and reduction of hospitalization can significantly reduce the cost of treatment and quickly normalize the quality of life of patients. The results demonstrate the prospects of the introduction of bipolar methods of endoscopic surgery for the treatment of BPH in the surgical practice of urological hospitals in order to improve the safety of surgical treatment and save costs for hospitalization.

В статье представлены данные оригинального исследования по улучшению хирургического лечения аневризм брюшного отдела аорты. С этой целью произведен сравнительный анализ двух альтернативных друг другу операций: 1) резекции аневризмы с последующим протезированием аорты; 2) эндопротезирования аорты. Сформулировано научное предположение о том, что замена «классических» операций резекции аневризмы на «альтернативные» операции эндопротезирования приведет к принципиальному снижению уровня послеоперационных осложнений. В независимых группах пациентов с использованием сравниваемых хирургических вмешательств произведена точная качественная и количественная оценка послеоперационных осложнений: нетромботических - кардиальных, пульмональных, ренальных и тромботических - тромбозов глубоких вен и тромбозов браншей протеза. После реализации исследования было установлено, что замена «классических» операций на «альтернативные» достоверно приводит к принципиальному снижению уровня наиболее жизнеопасных осложнений - кардиальных (острых форм ишемической болезни сердца, нарушений сердечного ритма), пульмональных (пневмоний, тромбоэмболии легочной артерии, респираторного дистресс-синдрома взрослых) и ренальных (острой почечной недостаточности). Некоторое исключение составили менее жизнеопасные тромботические осложнения. Полученные результаты имеют высокий уровень статистической значимости, что позволяет рекомендовать их к рассмотрению к использованию в практике сосудистой хирургии The article presents data from an original study to improve the surgical treatment of abdominal aortic aneurysms. For this purpose, a comparative analysis of two alternate operations was performed: 1) aneurysm resection followed by aortic prosthetics; 2) aortic endoprosthetics. The scientific hypothesis is formulated that the replacement of the «classical» operations of resection of the aneurysm with «alternative» operations of endoprosthetics will lead to a fundamental decrease in the level of postoperative complications. In independent groups of patients using the compared surgical interventions, an accurate qualitative and quantitative assessment of postoperative complications was made: non-thrombotic - cardiac, pulmonary, renal and thrombotic - deep vein thrombosis and prosthetic jaw thrombosis. After the study was completed, it was found that the fundamental replacement of «classical» operations with «alternative» reliably leads to a fundamental decrease in the level of the most life-threatening complications - cardiac (acute forms of coronary heart disease, cardiac arrhythmias), pulmonary (pneumonia, pulmonary thromboembolism, respiratory distress syndrome of adults) and renal (acute renal failure). Some exceptions were less life-threatening thrombotic complications. The results obtained have a high level of statistical significance, which allows us to recommend them for consideration in the practice of vascular surgery

Abstract Background Children affected by Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) showed various manifestations. Some of them were severe cases presenting with multi-system inflammatory syndrome (MIS-C) causing multiple organ dysfunction. Case presentation We report the case of a 12-year-old girl with recent COVID-19 infection who presented with persistent fever, abdominal pain and other symptoms that meet the definition of MIS-C. She had lymphopenia and a high level of inflammatory markers. She was admitted to pediatric intensive care unit since she rapidly developed refractory catecholamine-resistant shock with multiple organ failure. Echocardiography showed a small pericardial effusion with a normal ejection fraction (Ejection Fraction = 60%) and no valvular or coronary lesions. The child showed no signs of improvement even after receiving intravenous immunoglobulin, fresh frozen plasma, high doses of Vasopressors and corticosteroid. His outcome was fatal. Conclusion Pediatric patients affected by the new COVID-19 related syndrome may show severe life-threatening conditions similar to Kawasaki disease shock syndrome. Hypotension in these patients results from heart failure and the decreased cardiac output. We report a new severe clinical feature of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children in whom hypotension was the result of refractory vasoplegia.
