Background. The chronic and recurrent nature of seborrheic dermatitis, its wide prevalence and multifactorial etiopathogenesis require a comparison of the effectiveness of different treatment strategies. Aim. In a randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of standard and intermittent therapy with topical corticosteroids and activated zinc pyrithione (Skin-cap cream) in reducing the severity of clinical manifestations, the duration of remission of the disease, and compliance with treatment. Methods. The effectiveness of external therapy in patients with seborrheic dermatitis of the face and scalp was studied. All the examined patients had at least two episodes of exacerbation per year. Doctor's prescription Mometasone furoate cream 0.1% 1 time/day externally for 14 days, activated zinc pyrithione (Skin-cap cream) 2 times/day externally for 14 days, further 1 time a day 2 times a week for 14 days. Results. There was a comparable clinical effectiveness of antiinflammatory therapy in the short term with more stable results of intermittent therapy with the use of (Skin-cap cream) in the long term. Conclusions. Usage of activated zinc pyrithione (Skin-cap cream) according to the intermittent scheme in the treatment of seborrheic dermatitis of the face with the transition to the scalp is associated with long-term results. Safety of medicine allows to use it pro re nata by patients, e.g., in case of increased stress levels, diet incompliance, with no risks of adverse events, specific to topical corticosteroids, those increases treatment compliance.

According to modern views all neuroendocrinal tumors of a pancreas having clinical manifestations (in the form of the syndromes caused by products of specific hormones; increases in level of hormones in blood of patients without clinical manifestations; in the form of signs of existence of volume education in various departments of PZh) and/or the researches (more than 5 mm) revealed by means of beam methods are malignant in the biology as they have high potential to innidiation. In article it is shown that a considerable part of neuroendocrinal tumors of a pancreas are nonfunctioning, i.e. not cosecreting various gastrointestinal hormones and polypeptides in blood and thereof not followed characteristic clinical manifestations. It is noted that diagnostics of neuroendocrinal tumors of a pancreas is extremely difficult task on which solution the choice of a method of treatment and its long-term results depends...

Dislocations in the carpometacarpal joints of three-phalanx fingers are rare form of injury. Their clinical manifestations are often veiled by swelling, and radiographs in standard views provide little information, which leads to difficulty in diagnosis and a high incidence of unidentified dislocations in the primary treatment. The article describes the basic provisions of the diagnosis and treatment of this type of injury, a clinical case of surgical treatment of undiagnosed dislocations of II-V metacarpal bones in the acute period, and long-term results of treatment.
