[Principles of treatment of nonparasitic cysts of the liver].

A comparative investigation of different methods of treatment of nonparasitic cysts of the liver was carried out in 104 patients aged from 21 through 74 years with sizes of the cysts from 6 to 21 cm in diameter, divided into three groups. The first group included 50 patients who were subjected to open operations (segmentectomy, bisegmentectomy, fenestration of the cysts with treatment of the residual inner lining with ethanol, diathermocoagulation or cryodestruction). Laparoscopic fenestration and chemical or thermal treatment of the cysts were used in the second group of 29 patients, in the third group consisting of 25 patients a puncture-aspiration method was used under sonographic control.

[Means of reducing blood loss and volume of the used transfused media in operative treatment of burn lesions of the liver].

An experience with surgical treatment of 77 patients with focal lesions of the liver is described. The patients were divided into two groups. In the main group (42 patients) the treatment-and-prophylactic method was used including acute isovolemic and hypervolemic hemodilution, preliminary preparation of autoblood, isolation and ligation of the vascular-secretory elements, the application for local hemostasis with Takhokomb of "Tissucol", gelatinous sponge with gentamycin.

[Hemoaggregatology and blood surgery].

Hemaggregatology was formed as a new trend in blood science in the second part of the 20th century. Hemaggregatology underwent several stages in its development. This gave rise to a theory of the systematic regulation of blood aggregation and a new trend in surgery, such as blood gravitation surgery.
