[The cytomorphologic characteristics of parathyroid gland under various forms of hyperparathyroidism].

The study was organized to establish criteria of cytological diagnostic of pathology of parathyroid glands under various forms of hyperparathyroidism. The ultrasound examination of pathology of parathyroid glands was applied to 74 patients with hyperparathyroidism aged 24-66 years (20 males and 54 females). The examination was applied to 11 patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (bone visceral form), 51 patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism of severe course and 12 patients with tertiary hyperparathyroidism (post-transplantation).

[The cytomorphologic characteristics of parathyroids under hyperparathyroidism].

The article presents the results of intravital studying of cytomorphologic characteristics of elements of tissue of parathyroids obtained under thin-needle aspiration biopsy in patients with hyperparathyroidism. The analysis was applied to 84 fragments of cell material from node formations in projection of anatomic localization of parathyroids and in projection of lobes and isthmus of thyroid gland. The cytologic preparations colored with Pappenheim azure-eosin staining were analyzed using light microscopy.

[Long-term results of treatment and prediction in patients with sarcoidosis].

The long-term results of treatment in patients with different clinical forms of sarcoidosis were studied, by using both prednisolone and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). No therapeutic measures were implemented in some patients. The total number of patients was 1587; the time of a follow-up was 2 to 10 years after completion of treatment or, in the latter's absence, after detection of the disease.
