[Morphological changes in the urinary tracts in chlamydial infection (experimental study)].

Model experiments on 57 white rat females with acute chlamydeal and bacterial infection staged infectious process. The stages were strictly limited by time: within 3 days of infection--exudative-necrotic stage, within the infection days 3 to 7--infectious stage, day 7-14--carriage. Thus, it is demonstrated that specific therapy of chlamydial infection should cover more than 14 days whatever clinical response may be.

[Treatment of ureterocele in children].

Twenty six patients (15 children and 11 adults) with ureterocele were treated. Heterotopic ureterocele prevailed over common forms in children while in adults--vice versa (66.7 and 33.

[Gastrointestinal hormones in the blood serum of patients with chronic renal failure].

Content of gastrointestinal hormones (gastrin, insulin, glucagon, C-peptide), beta2-microglobulin, glomerular filtration rate (GFR) were studied in 65 patients with nephrolithiasis (NL) and in 73 patients with chronic renal failure (CRF). It was found that NL with GFR under 80 ml/min runs with elevated insulin, glucagon and C-peptide while CRF with CRF under 30 ml/min is characterized by aggravated disorders of hormonal homeostasis (gastrin, insulin, glucagons, C-peptide elevation). As gastrointestinal hormones in patients with CRF are high, it is recommended to combine medication with diet containing low amount of carbohydrates easy for digestion which is important in the treatment of CRF.

[Sex correction in testicular feminization syndrome].

From 1993 to 2000 the authors observed 10 patients with testicular feminization. In spite of existent highly informative methods, early diagnosis of the genesis of abnormal sexual differentiation is not easy, it requires time. Treatment policy varied with the form of testicular feminization.

[Surgical treatment pf vasorenal hypertension complicated by renal failure].

28 patients with vasorenal hypertension complicated by renal failure were operated. 20, 7 and 1 patients were in the stages of compensation, subcompensation and decompensation, respectively. Nephrectomy, plastic reconstruction of renal artery, nephropexy, dilation of the renal artery were made.
