[Balneologic rehabilitation in women operated on for ectopic tubal pregnancy].

This paper is in support of balneological rehabilitation in patients operated on due to ectopic pregnancy and still willing to have children. In a group of 203 patients, in which histopathological findings from the material obtained at the time of surgery enabled determination of the cause of ectopic pregnancy, causative pharmacological treatment was established. Than the successive balneological treatment was carried out in 74 out of these 203 patients.

[Diagnostic methods considering tubal factors in infertility].

The diagnostic methods of tubal factor in infertility have been presented in this paper. In details have been discussed PJ, PK, HSG and pelvic examination. These examinations themselves constitute the basic ones in infertility.

[Fertility of women after past ectopic pregnancy].

An analysis of the fates of women after passed pregnancy was performed concerning the type of surgery and the microscopic findings in the excised oviducts. The analysis based on the subsequent frequency of intrauterine pregnancies in the operated subjects, incidence of repeat ectopic pregnancies and following sterility. In the group 416 operated women intrauterine pregnancy followed in 31.

[Pelvic endoscopy in diagnosing fallopian tube disorders that cause infertility].

Over the period of 25 years, 1080 pelvic endoscopy in infertile women were performed, with special attention payed to the pathology of Fallopian tubes. Pelvic endoscopy was performed after previous HSG. During the pelvic endoscopy, the state of the uterus, ovaries and uterine tubes were evaluated, with much attention paid to the condition of the abdominal ostium of the uterine tube, symptoms of active and chronic inflammation, endometriosis, the authors also tried to diagnose the extension and character of pelvic-salpingian adhesions.

[Role of pelvic endoscopy in diagnosing congenital uterine malformations].

The role of pelvic endoscopy in diagnosing uterine abnormalities, considering material of 1170 patients, is presented in this paper. It has been documented that pelviscopy together with hysterosalpingography play basic role in determining type of uterine abnormality. In 20 cases pelvic endoscopy enabled verification of the primary diagnosis set by hysterosalpingography.

[Rapid preliminary diagnosis of anaerobic bacterial infections. II. Investigation of the presence of volatile and non-volatile fatty acids (C1-C6) in pus, purulent fluids and dressing by application of gas chromatography].

Studies were performed in the years 1986-1990 and dealing with 405 clinical materials originating from infections within the abdominal cavity, maxilla, reproductive organ, post-operative wounds as well as dressings, extremities, blood, bile and other types of material and usefulness of analysis by gas chromatography of presence of lower fatty acids in materials for rapid and preliminary diagnostics with strictly anaerobic bacteria was confirmed. Presence in chromatograms of isobutyric, butyric isovaleric, valeric, isocaproic and caproic acid, and partly of propionic acid, is a good indication of infection with strictly anaerobic bacteria. Moreover, presence of succinic acid may suggest presence of anaerobic infection, similarly as presence in chromatograms of three or more various lower fatty acids.

[Atrophy of the mandible and maxilla as complication of treatment and healing of jaw fractures].

The authors discuss in the light of literature data the causes of bone atrophy and report two own cases of extensive atrophy of the mandible and atrophy of the maxilla developed during treatment of their fractures. Parallel mandibular atrophy in a patient aged 67 years was observed 3 years after surgical union of fractured fragments of the edentulous mandible with metal plates. The cause of atrophy is related by the authors to prolonged malnutrition of the patient who had partial gaestrectomy 24 years earlier, and his failure to observe the suggested mandible immobilization during the required length of time.

[Evaluation of the indications for conservative and surgical treatment of mandibular fractures in the light of late therapeutic results. Own material results of studies].

The studied material comprised 300 inpatients with mandibular fractures in whom the data necessary for the intended assessment were collected according to an acc epted programme. The collected material made possible to evaluate the indications to surgical and conservative treatment in the light of immediate and late results considering the duration of the treatment and its effectiveness, and the time of disability to work or school work. On the basis of the obtained therapeutic results the necessity was demonstrated of introduction of slight corrections in the presently accepted indications to the choice of treatment type.

[Evaluation of the indications used for conservative and surgical treatment of mandibular fractures in the light of late results].

A survey of the literature on the selection of conservative or surgical treatment of mandibular fractures is presented. In view of great advances in traumatology and other related medical specialities the need arose of verification of the presently accepted indications to the choice of the type and mode of treatment of fractures in the facial skeleton. The range of studies on this problem and the methods are described.

[Teeth squeezing into pterygomandibular space in course of their extraction].

The authors demonstrating two cases of pushing through lower wisdom teeth into pterygomandibular space in course of their extraction state that this complication of teeth extraction is the fault in medical art. They describe symptoms of inflammatory complications and surgical management that has been applied in these cases.
