[Cerebrovascular complications in patients with moderate and small stenosis of the carotid arteries in the hospital period of coronary artery bypass grafting using cardiopulmonary bypass].

Objective: Assessment of the incidence of acute cerebral circulatory disorder (ACCD) and decompensation of chronic cerebral ischemia (CCI) in the hospital period of coronary artery bypass graft performed using artificial circulation in patients with- and without moderate and minor carotid artery stenosis.

Material And Methods: One hundred and twenty-eight patients were examined. Neurological and neuropsychological examinations, neuroimaging were performed, concentrations of S100ß protein in blood serum were determined.

[Stenosis of the carotid artery in women with ischemic stroke and markers of inflammation].

[The possibility of application of stimulant growth factor (ST2) for verifying postinfarction remodeling of myocardium.].

Purpose Of Study: To detect level ST2 in blood serum of patients with myocardium infarction in dynamics of hospital period and their relationship with remodeling of myocardium.

Materials And Methods: The study sampling included 87 patients (65 males and 22 females) with myocardium infarction and the ST-segment elevation and average age of 59 years. All patients were allocated in two groups: with adaptive alternative of remodeling of myocardium (67 patients) and deadaptive alternative (20 patients).

[Experience of surgical treatment of primary peripheral pulmonary cancer and of tumoral metastases by video-assisted thoracoscopy].

In clinic of thoracic surgery were operated on 2108 patients for various forms of pulmonary cancer, 218 (10.3%) of them--using videothoracoscopy (VTHS). In 141 (64.

[Remote follow-up results of the treatment of patients with surgeries for acute ileus].

The quantity of patients with colonic cancer, operated on for an acute ileus (AI), survived more than 5 years, is significantly less than those who were treated in a planned order. The tumor infiltration of intestinal wall and the presence of the lymph node metastases are the most important prognostical factors. The presence of AI in preoperational period, low differentiation of tumor and the patients young age have negative influence on the survival indexes.

[Reoperations as a second stage of surgical treatment of patients with colon cancer].
