Mid-term results of endovascular revascularization through primary retrograde distal access.

Objective: To evaluate the mid-term results of endovascular revascularization of the lower extremities through primary retrograde distal approach.

Material And Methods: We prospectively analyzed the mid-term results of 74 endovascular surgeries via primary retrograde distal approach in 69 patients with lower extremity ischemia. Mean age of patients was 68.

[Treatment of a woman with phlegmasia cerulea dolens complicated by massive pulmonary thromboembolism and intestinal haemorrhage].

Acute thrombosis of the lower limb deep veins remains one of the most common vascular diseases. It is characterised by formation of thrombotic masses in the system of the deep veins of the lower extremities. A serious complication associated with deep vein thrombosis is pulmonary embolism.

[Thrombosis of lower-limb deep veins: a present-day view on conservative treatment].

The article contains a review of the literature data concerning different variants of conservative treatment of patients suffering from lower limb deep vein thrombosis. This is accompanied and followed by demonstrating the manner of alterations in the views on using various anticoagulants, as well as analysing the attitude towards the place of compression therapy in treatment of patients with lower limb deep vein thrombosis.

Amino acids and their derivatives in tumour tissue from patients with breast cancer treated with Ukrain. Part VI.

The present study was undertaken to evaluate the influence of Ukrain on the amino acids pool and their derivatives in tumour tissue of ten patients with breast cancer, treated in the preoperative phase with Ukrain. The control group consisted of five patients of similar age and advancement of the disease, who did not receive Ukrain. The data obtained indicate that Ukrain influences cancerous tissue, as demonstrated at the level of amino acids.
