APPLICATION OF LAPAROSCOPIC LIFTING SYSTEMS IN PATIENTS WITH HIGH CARDIORESPIRATORY RISK.

Intra-abdominal hypertension during laparoscopic operations increased the risk of complications from cardiovascular and respiratory systems. An application of laparolifting systems allowed doctors to avoid changes of pneumoperitoneum, although it was associated with technical difficulties in operation performance. The authors used a test in order to determine cardiorespiratory reserve in preoperative period.

[Comparative research of traumatic injury of open hand-assisted laparoscopic anterior resection of the rectum].

The article made a comparative assessment of traumatic injury of open hand-assisted laparoscopic anterior resection of the rectum in lateral and spinal positions. The presented technique of hand-assisted laparoscopic colon and rectal surgery is simple. There are advantages in case of obesity presence (IMT more than 30 kg/m2), in significant shortening of the mesocolon and mesentery, high fixation of splenic flexure and intimate fixation of the spleen, in case of bad preparation of the bowels in partial intestinal obstruction or in case of emergency operation, big cancer size, expressed perifocal inflammation.

[The prevention and treatment of the incompetence of esophageal anastomoses].

The main cause of lethal outcomes after operations on the oesophagus and cardia remains failure of esophageal anastomosis. The lack of substantial positive changes in prophylaxis and especially in treatment of this complication is explained by etiological approach to this problem. Pathogenesis of the failure is determined by the only trigger--penetration of infection into the tissues of anastomotic area.
