Surgical outcome in patients with spinal metastases in the period 1993-2002.

Background. Authors introduced ways and results of treatment operating patients with spinal metastases, treated in Orthopaedic Clinic of Central Military Hospital in years 1993-2002.
Material and methods.

[The use of superselective embolization of the maxillary artery in treatment of bleedings in the Rendu-Osler-Weber syndrome].

Rendu-Osler-Weber syndrome is a rare genetically determined disorder that affects blood vessels throughout the body and results in a tendency for bleeding. Authors describe the case of superselective embolization of the left maxillary artery with polyvinyl alcohol particles in a patient with the Rendu-Osler-Weber syndrome hospitalized and treated in the Department of Otolaryngology and the Department of Radiology of the Military Institute in Warszawa, Poland due to persistent, severe and difficult to manage nasal bleeding. After the procedure had been performed patient condition improved and frequency and severity of nasal bleeding significantly diminished.

[Assessment of early complications in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm after endovascular operations].

Unlabelled: During past few years endovascular procedures at patients with abdominal aorta aneurysm (AAA) have widely replaced surgical treatment. The number of patients being operated by the use of this method has been growing.

Aim Of The Study: The aim of this study is to estimate early complications in patients with AAA treated by the use of bifurcated aortic stent-grafts.

[Endovascular treatment with bifurcated stent-grafts in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms].

Unlabelled: During past few years endovascular procedures at patients with abdominal aorta aneurysm (AAA) have widely replaced surgical treatment. The interest put in endovascular treatment is high. The number of patients being operated by the use of this method has been growing.
