[Surgical tactics in the treatment of villous adenoma of the stomach and intestine].

The results of endoscopic and surgical treatment of 183 patients with villous and tubular-villous adenoma of different location are presented. Adenoma of the stomach and duodenum are subject to malignization more often than colonic adenomas. Endoscopic polypectomy is a method of choice in treatment of benign adenoma with a diameter no more than 4 cm.

[Diagnostic and therapeutic endoscopy in acute obstruction of the large intestine].

A total of 100 patients with a clinical picture of acute large-intestinal obstruction have been examined to whom 157 endoscopic highly effective diagnostic and therapeutic interventions were performed. The data obtained were used to determine the sequence of actions by a specialist in endoscopy during the treatment of large intestinal obstruction.

[Lymph node hyperplasia of the gastric antrum].

Signs of hyperplasia of the lymph nodules of the antral part of the stomach (HLNAPS) were revealed in 352 adults and 213 children during esophagogastroduodenoscopy. Endoscopic, clinical and morphological signs of this disease were described. HLNAPS resistance to common antiulcerative therapy was noted.

[Comparative results of the treatment of gastroduodenal ulcers with low-energy laser and hyperbaric oxygenation].

In 90 patients with peptic ulcer of the stomach and duodenum, the times required for the healing of ulcerous defects were studied and compared after local irradiation with low-energy (infrared) laser and hyperbaric oxygenation. Analysis of the data obtained attests to the similar (in terms of the times of the healing of gastric and duodenal ulcers) clinical efficacy of the methods under comparison. This makes it possible to regard hyperbaric oxygenation and the local use of infrared laser as the methods of choice (with regard to individual tolerance) for the treatment of peptic ulcer.
