[Case of successful prevention of multiple organ dysfunctions in 74 years old patient with sepsis after Crawford surgery complicated with pleural empyema, chest wall tissues infection and osteomyelitis of ribs].

The article deals with a clinical case demonstrating that patient's elderly age is not an absolute contraindication for complex surgery in spite of high risk of postoperative complications. Early diagnostics, target treatment of the infection cite with vacuum-assisted therapy for wounds and the treatment of infectious complications based on individual characteristics of elderly patient with sepsis as an outcome of prosthetic thoracoabdominal aortic repair allowed avoiding multiple organ dysfunctions in the patient.

[Antibiotic resistance dynamics and isolation rate of staphylococci and enterococci from patients of reconstructive surgery units].

The dynamics of isolation of staphylococci and enterococci from clinical material of patients and their antibiotic susceptibility within a 5-year period (2005-2009) was analysed. 5990 isolates were tested: 1250 isolates of Staphylococcus aureus, 3268 isolates of S. epidermidis, 1005 isolates of Enterococcus faecalis and 467 isolates of E.

Methods for microbiological monitoring could analyze the microflora isolated in 372 patients with iatrogenic diseases of the trachea and esophagus, who were treated at the Department for Surgery of the Lung and Mediastinum, Acad. B. V.

[Nonfermentative gram-negative bacteria: isolation rates and antibiotic sensitivity].

The isolation rates of nonfermentative gram-negative bacteria (NFGNB) are analyzed in the inpatients treated at the B. V. Petrovsky Russian Surgery Research Center in 2005-2009 and antibiotic resistance trends in nosocomial strains of NFGNB are traced in the above period.
