[Beam construction of plate implant substantiation for cases of maxilla alveolar process atrophy].

Original version of intraosseous plate implant of beam type was elaborated intended for patients with end dentition defects, fool absence of teeth on maxilla with sharp reduction of alveolar process. On the stage of working out the distribution of deflected mode status developed in jaw bone structures under the influence of alternate loads on the system implant-prosthetic device was studied. In the period from 1995 to 2003 to 143 patients with partial or full loss of teeth and sharp reduction of maxilla alveolar process 205 intraosseous beam type implants were installed.

[Endoscopic laser coagulation of the tumor in patients with cancer of the esophagus and proximal portion of the stomach].

The paper discusses the results of treatment of 152 cases of cancer of the esophagus and proximal part of the stomach presenting with grade III-IV dysphagia. In 107 patients, treatment included endoscopic laser coagulation of tumor: in 52 the procedure was combined with radiation and in 18 cases-with chemotherapy, whereas in 37 patients the method was used alone for palliation only attempting at return to enteral nutrition. Histories of 45 patients with esophageal cancer who had received standard treatment served as control.

[Endoscopic electrothermocoagulation of tumors in inoperable cancer of the esophagus and proximal part of the stomach].

The paper discusses application of endoscopic electrothermocoagulation in complex treatment of inoperable cancer of the esophagus and the proximal part of the stomach presenting with severe dysphagia. The study included 247 such patients, with 77.3% having stage IV tumor.
