[Treatment of experimental corneal injuries by dioxidine and urotropin solutions].

The efficiency of 1% dioxidine and 5% urotropin solutions in suppurative penetrating corneal wounds was studied in 2 experimental series on 54 rabbits. In series A toxic effects of these drugs on eyeball tissues were studied on 6 rats, in series B drug effects were studied on a model of suppurative penetrating corneal wounds. A 21-day course of therapy with these drugs (instillations and subconjunctival parabulbar injections) caused no toxic changes in ocular tissues.

[New surgical tactics in the treatment of patients with complicated tuberculosis of the lungs and pleura].

Stepwise surgical tactics by using transsternal transepicardial preocclusion of the main bronchus and lung root vessels, opening of the empyema cavity and pneumotomy has been proposed to treat patients with progressive fibrocavernous tuberculosis complicated by pneumothorax and pleural empyema and extended into the thoracic wall.
