[Local sorption therapy and its effectiveness in correction of endogenous intoxication in patients with acute purulent pyelonephritis and paranephritis].

The 118 operated patients with different forms of acute purulent pyelonephritis, including complicated with paranephritis were followed-up. Control group consisted of 65 similar patients who underwent traditional comprehensive treatment. Study group (n = 53) underwent additional wound dialysis with carbonic drainage-sorbent.

[Chronic pyelonephritis in workers of chemical industry: pathogenesis and treatment].

The examination of 500 workers engaged in the production of chemicals detected chronic pyelonephritis in 81 (16%) of them. Such occupational hazards as furnace-charge dust, fly-powder, calcium petre in the air, intensify their toxic action on workers in high temperature and humidity (54-67%) at workplace and provoke pyelonephritis. An experimental model of pyelonephritis was developed in animals exposed to the above environmental hazards.

[Diagnosis and treatment of acute epididymoorchitis].

From 1963 we treated 330 patients aged from 15 to 85 years admitted to the urological clinic with acute epididymoorchitis of mild (n = 106), moderate (n = 82) and grave severity (n = 152). The diagnosis of purulent forms of epididymitis and epididymoorchitis was made basing on clinical and ultrasonic studies. Aspiration thin-needle puncture of epididymic membrane under ultrasonic control with calculation of leucocyte count was made for detection of purulent-process in 17 patients with epididymitis at the stage of diffuse inflammation.

[Surgical policy in complicated forms of acute purulent pyelonephritis].

Forty three patients with purulent pyelonephritis complicated with abscess or pyelonephritis received local treatment with application of active carbon drainage columns made of macroporous capron net or cotton with 2.5-4 nm pores. These drains showed high efficacy both in vitro and in patients with purulent pyelonephritis.

[A variant of transvesical extraurethral adenomectomy].

To facilitate extraurethral adenomectomy, we used a semicylindric scalpel and metallic tube (tubus) to make a semioval cut parallel to proximal prostatic portion of the urethra along the posterior semicircle of the bladder neck in 260 patients with prostatic adenoma (PA). The urethra was isolated from the adenomatous tissues. The vesicular cut was prolonged left and right to the level of ureteral ostia.
