Rendu-Osler-Weber disease or hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT) is a rare autosomal dominant disease. It is characterized by vascular dysplasia with the formation of telangiectasias on the skin, mucous membranes of the respiratory and digestive tracts, arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) in the internal organs, which is manifested by bleeding. Diagnosis is based on Curacao criteria: recurrent and spontaneous nosebleeds, multiple telangiectases on the characteristic localizations, AVMs in one or more of the internal organs, a family history of HHT (i.

Material And Methods: The study included 114 patients with NSTI who were treated between 2016 and 2021. We analyzed treatment outcomes in 2 groups: retrospective (=43) with traditional approaches to purulent surgery (drainage of necrotic foci, local therapy with iodophores and water-soluble ointments, antibacterial and detoxification therapy, delayed skin grafting) and prospective (=71) with active surgical treatment and modern algorithm based on a differentiated approach and high-tech methods (vacuum therapy, hydrosurgical treatment of wounds, early skin grafting and extracorporeal hemocorrection).
Proximal gastrointestinal decompression is essential in the treatment of acute adhesive small bowel obstruction. Improvement of endoscopic methods, surgical instruments and radiological methods of control makes it possible to timely assess lavage and intra-intestinal therapy. The review presents current views on upper gastrointestinal decompression and other options for the treatment of adhesive small bowel obstruction.

Material And Methods: There were 128 patients with acute adhesive small bowel obstruction for the period from 2015 to 2018. The study included 2 groups of patients depending on therapeutic approach and duration of treatment.
Aim: To define optimal terms of surgery for acute adhesive non-strangulatory small bowel obstruction.
Material And Methods: The analysis included 703 publications from e-LIBRARI.RU (342 works) and NCBI (361 works) databases for acute adhesive intestinal obstruction.
