[Principles of treatment of nonparasitic cysts of the liver].

A comparative investigation of different methods of treatment of nonparasitic cysts of the liver was carried out in 104 patients aged from 21 through 74 years with sizes of the cysts from 6 to 21 cm in diameter, divided into three groups. The first group included 50 patients who were subjected to open operations (segmentectomy, bisegmentectomy, fenestration of the cysts with treatment of the residual inner lining with ethanol, diathermocoagulation or cryodestruction). Laparoscopic fenestration and chemical or thermal treatment of the cysts were used in the second group of 29 patients, in the third group consisting of 25 patients a puncture-aspiration method was used under sonographic control.

[Laboratory and clinical study of therapeutic efficacy of medicinal films for surgical procedures].

An analysis of the experimental data showed that anesthetic medicinal films (AMFs) offer an effective medicinal form for the treatment of suppurative inflammatory disorders(SIDs) of soft tissues. The results of preclinical experiments with AMFs showed evidence of anesthetic, antimicrobial, and hemostatic effects. The therapeutic effect was established in the course of clinical investigations and confirmed by the results of cytological, histological, morphological, and bacteriological testing.
