The aim of the study was to present clinical observations regarding the reposition of uterine torsion in pregnant mares. Treatments were performed in 10 mares hospitalized with a diagnosis of uterine torsion in the period from the 8th to the 11th month of pregnancy, including one mare treated during delivery. In 4 mares, obstetric examination revealed the presence of dead fetuses. In one mare admitted during labor, Kamer's repositioning technique was applied by inserting a hand through the vagina into the uterus. In all other cases, mares underwent surgical repositioning after laparotomy performed in linea alba. In 4 mares, in which the uterine wall was at risk of rupture during handling because of advanced changes, a caesarean section was performed before repositioning. Eight out of the 9 mares survived treatment and recovered without complications. One of five mares in which live fetuses were left, miscarried, while the other four delivered healthy foals. Uterine torsion reposition by midline laparotomy offers the best possibilities for inspecting the abdominal cavity, including the uterus, and for detecting any other abnormalities of the digestive system. In the case of mares in which fetuses were left, spontaneous delivery had no adverse effect on the healing of the wound.

A case of prenatal ultrasound diagnosis of a rare congenital ovarian tumor is presented. By ultrasound examination at 36–37 weeks of gestation the intra-abdominal mass 66  47  74 mm occupying the entire abdominal cavity was discovered. At 38 weeks of pregnancy spontaneous delivery occurred with girl weight 2840 g. On the eighth day after birth the child has been successfully undergone surgery. Histological examination revealed congenital germ-cell tumor with structures of dysgerminoma and yolk sac tumor.

The Right

Mature cystic teratomas (MCTs) of the ovary represent 44% of ovarian neoplasmas. The surgical approach is important in young women especially for the cosmetic results. Nowadays most of the ovarian surgeries can be performed laparoscopically. An alternative between laparoscopy and laparotomy is the minilaparotomy (ML) which can be an interesting option, thanks to the small incision. We report a 39-year-old woman who was referred to our hospital with acute abdominal pain. In her past history the patient had an uncomplicated delivery. During pregnancy a 6 cm bilateral MCT was diagnosed and expectant management was followed. A left-sided ovarial torsion was postulated, and laparoscopic detorsion was performed. To avoid a rupture of the left MCT, the operation was interrupted. To remove the cyst, a ML was done two weeks later. A left-sided salpingo-oophorectomy was performed due to a large cyst including the entire ovary. On the other side, the right dermoid cyst was entirely removed. The advantage of a ML is not only shorter operating time with less learning curve compared to laparoscopy but also the possibility to extract the adnexal mass from the abdominal cavity with lower risk of rupture and in addition the possibility to preserve more ovarian tissue.

The authors describe clinical observations of children with acute mesenteric adenitis with PCRconfirmed COVID-19 infection. Attention during ultrasound diagnostics is drawn to the condition of the lymph nodes – mesenteric adenitis in COVID-19 infection was manifested by a significant increase in the size of the nodes – more than 15 mm, a large number of nodes in the cut with a tendency to form a conglomerate, a more rounded shape, significantly increased blood flow, a reaction of the peritoneum in the form its thickening and the presence of free fluid in the abdominal cavity. Unusual for a «ordinary» respiratory viral or intestinal infection type of lymph nodes was the only sign that distinguishes the manifestations of mesenteric infection in COVID-19 infection.

Purpose. To report our experience with incarcerated femoral hernia procedure, which allows laparotomy through same inguinal skin incision, inspection and resection of compromised bowel, and preperitoneal tension-free transabdominal repair with Ventralex™ Hernia Patch.Materials and Methods. The suprainguinal laparotomy was performed via same groin incision without compromising iliopubic tract. The femoral ring was sealed with Ventralex™ Hernia Patch pulled through the abdominal cavity and secured outside. Five consecutive patients diagnosed with incarcerated femoral hernias were operated. All of them required laparotomy, either for bowel resection (n=3) or for inspection of viability (n=2).Results. All patients tolerated the procedure well. There were no wound or mesh infections, incisional hernias, or recurrences during follow-up.Conclusions. Our easy-to-master operative approach to incarcerated femoral hernia allows easy access to abdominal cavity through same groin incision without compromising iliopubic tract or midline laparotomy. Reduction of incarcerated bowel and its inspection and resection can be safely performed. The femoral ring defect can be effectively obliterated with Ventralex™ Hernia Patch.

This study was carried out at the Yenice Irrigation Pond between October 1999 and October 2000. For this study 368 roach (Rutilus rutilus) were examined and 37 parasites and 93 Ligula intestinalis were found in the abdominal cavity of the host (prevalence 10.1%, mean intensity 2.51 specimens/fish). Based on season, the highest number of infected fish occurred during summer (33.3%, 4 parasite/fish), and during the other season the mean intensity of infection was relatively low (prevalence 3.3%, 1 specimens/fish). On the other hand, the parasite species was determined especially on small and medium host fish sizes (2.17-100%). Basic criteria for the assessment of the parasite species of host fish were the general parameters related to parasite populations, which are prevalence, mean intensity, seasonal variation, and relationship between host size and infection.

Numerous clinical observations of the last time, mainly over the course of incised wounds, have convinced surgeons and gynecologists to a sufficient extent that the primary role in the healing of these wounds is played by cleanliness, and not by disinfectants. Suffice it to point to such authorities in this respect as Bantok, Lawson-Tait, Thorntorn, De Granville, Kocher. Sklifosovsky and others. Some of the surgeons and gynecologists of modern asepsis have gone so far in their views that they look at all disinfectants as self-deception, while others consider the presence of some non-pathogenic microorganisms even useful (?) In the fight against accidentally caught pathogenic and therefore delay the growth of the former seems to be irrational. But on the other hand, there are not a small number of surgeons who have asepsis alongside antiseptics and who cannot refuse, if not "in the leading", then in the "known role" and disinfectants, not because routine has been mixed up in such a setting, but due in part to the conditions under which they have to work, in part to the undoubtedly beneficial properties of known disinfectants.

Clinical Observations

Fusion of intestines and omentum after surgery, mainly with an abdominal wound, is a frequent phenomenon, proven by a number of clinical observations during repeated operations in the same subjects. Meanwhile, the question of the reasons for such a phenomenon, despite attempts to experimentally resolve it (Snger, Dembowski, Kelterborn), remains open to this day. According to the opinion of the last mentioned authors, the main cause of adhesions in the abdominal cavity after operations is infection, the accretion of the omentum to the middle line is caused by the release of air and the local inflammatory process; further - sloughing of the epithelium and scars of the peritoneum in uncomplicated cases do not give adhesions, ligatures in the abdominal cavity for the most part also do not cause adhesions, but show a tendency to encapsulate.

2 rare cases of intrauterine contraception are presented. A 53-year old female patient had been having a Lippas intrauterine contraception device (IUCD) in the abdominal cavity for 19 years before it was occasionally revealed on cholecystectomy. The next female patient who had had a T-type IUCD for 6 years developed trophic changes of the uterine wall followed by the migration and penetration of IUCD into the wall and then the urine bladder cavity. Laparotomy and cystotomy with the evacuation of the foreign body and dissection of the walls of cystouterine fistular were performed. Both patients made a complete recovery.

The Subject

A large number of works that have appeared in recent years in our and foreign literature on the subject of tuberculous intestinal diseases can be explained mainly by the exceptional importance of the gastrointestinal tract behavior in tbc patients and, on the other hand, by the frequency of this suffering. Most of these works concern the clinic of tuberculous lesions of the intestine with a definite pathological and anatomical substrate at the base. However, disorders of digestive system function in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis can occur without the presence of any anatomical changes and dyspeptic disorders observed in these cases, extremely diverse in their clinical picture, not seldom present exceptional difficulty in recognizing the true causes of gastrointestinal disorders. Passing under the mask of a variety of gastrointestinal diseases, they can give rise to diagnostic errors.
