A new method of diagnosis of the hiatal hernia associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease.

Objective: Introduction: Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is one of the most common gastroduodenal diseases. The relationship between the hiatal hernia and the GERD is established. It is advisable to develop an accessible non-invasive diagnostic method for this combined pathology.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease: the results of videolaparoscopic fundoplication at five years after surgery.

Introduction: GERD reduces social activity and significantly affects the quality of life (QOL) of patients and the risk of complications (cancer of the esophagus, esophageal-gastric bleeding, strictures, perforation) is one of the most pressing problems of medicine of XXI century. The aim of the research is to evaluate the results of videolaparoscopic fundoplication at five years after surgery in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease.

Material And Methods: We studied results of videolaparoscopic antireflux surgery (VLAS) during 2009-2016 years in Department of Surgery and Endoscopy Faculty of postgraduate medical education Lviv National Medical University.

Diagnosis and treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease complicated by Barrett's esophagus.

Unlabelled: The aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a diagnostic and therapeutic algorithm for gastroesophageal reflux disease complicated by Barrett's esophagus in 46 patients.

Materials And Methods: A diagnostic and therapeutic algorithm for complicated GERD was developed. To describe the changes in the esophagus with reflux esophagitis, the Los Angeles classification was used.

Early diagnostics of temporomandibular joint structural elements injures caused by traumatic mandibular bone fractures.

A rapidly increasing number of mandibular condylar fractures and some complications related to injuries of temporomandibular elements make this study important. Intra-articular disorders lead to secondary pathological findings such as osteoarthritis, deforming osteoarthrosis, and temporomandibular joint ankylosis that limits mouth opening, mastication, swallowing, breathing, and decreased/lost working capacity or disability. Early diagnosis of intra-articular disorders can prevent from long-lasting functional complications caused by temporomandibular joint injuries.
