[Structural organization of microvascular complexes of muscular fascicles and prostatic glands in human during ontogenesis].

The article presents the results of evaluation of features of the structural organization of microvascular complexes of muscular fascicles and glands in the prostate of men of different ages. Autopsy material of 103 human prostate was used for examination. The data on the structural transformation of glands, muscle cells and connective tissue components in human prostate suggests that at different age periods the growth and differentiation of various structures occur unevenly, constantly changing relationships between components of organ and parts of its circulatory bed.

[Structural organization of prostatic muscular tissue in men in the I period of the mature age].

The aim of this research was to characterize the peculiar features of architectonics and microtopography of prostatic muscular tissue elements in men of the first period of mature age (22-35 years) which is the time of the highest functional activity of the organ. Histological and morphometric methods were used to study 22 specimens of human prostate . The sections were stained with hematoxylin-eosin, van Gieson's stain, Heidenhain's azocarmine; elastic fibers were demonstrated using Hart's fuchseline method.

[Variant anatomy of the anterior tibial veins and its clinical implications].

Variant anatomy of the anterior tibial veins (ATV) was studied using 22 preparations of the lower extremities of men and. The great variability of the ATV anatomic patterns was established, which was characterized by the presence of numerous anastomoses between the main trunks and lengthy regions of duplication, creating an impression of a larger number of venous trunks. In most specimens, ATV were observed to originate as two main trunks.

[Prophylaxis of pulmonary complications after traditional cholecystectomy at senior patients].

Results of complex treatment of 238 patients undergone operations due to cholelithiasis with acute cholecystitis are analyzed; 198 of them were aged 60 years. At perioperative period patients were treated traditionally, 76 patients were additionally treated with alkaline inhalations, bronchodilatators, cardiac drugs, Bemithyl antihypoxant, broad spectrum antibiotics, oxygen therapy through nasopharyngeal catheter and oxygen cocktail, physical exercise therapy and prolonged lung ventilation (in postoperative period). Pulmonary complications were registered in 2.

[Formation and development of prostatic hemomicrocirculatory bed in children and young men].

Age changes of the human prostate hemomicrocirculatory bed from 20 weeks of embryogenesis up to the 22 years of age were studied by histological, histochemical and morphometric methods in 113 prostatic glands. Two types of microcirculatory systems were established to be present in human prostate by the moment of birth: microvasculo-glandular complexes in lateral and posterior regions and myomicrovascular complexes, located basically in anterior regions of the gland. During neonatal and pubertal periods, when essential changes in organ structure occur, microcirculatory bed reacts by vessels dilatation.

[Segmented lymph nodes in man].

Segmentary lumbar, posterior pancreato-duodenal and inferior tracheobronchial lymph nodes have been investigated macro- and microscopically. The segmentary lymph nodes reach 12 X 45 X 45 mm, 10 X 25 X 100 mm in size. Most often these nodes are found among the posterior pancreato-duodenal lymph nodes (92%).

[Anatomy and topography of the regional lymph nodes of the liver and gallbladder].

Regional lymph nodes of the liver and gallbladder were examined in the autopsies of 80 adults (aged 17-96) in whom deaths were caused by factors not associated with lymph or gastrointestinal tract lesions. Lymphatic vessels of the liver and gallbladder are discharged into the lymph nodes of ten groups in abdominal cavity and four groups--in thoracic cavity. Also, they are discharged into thoracic duct.

[Variants in the number and size and the topography of the lumbar lymph nodes in the regional of the liver in the human adult].

By means of interstitial and direct injections of the lymphatic bed of the liver and gall bladder, their regional lymph nodes from the lumbar group have been studied in 63 corpses of mature persons of both sex. The hepatic lymph vessels flow into the lumbar lymph nodes in 73% of cases. Only the postaortal nodes (situating behind the abdominal part of the aorta) do not take the hepatic lymph nodes.

[Anatomy and topography of adult human hepatic lymph nodes].

In 63 corpses of mature persons of both sex at the age of 17-96 years, anatomy and topography of hepatic lymph nodes have been studied by means of interstitial injections into the liver and gallbladder. In 98% of cases from 1 to 10 lymph nodes have been revealed. They have been subdivided into 3 subgroups: the hepatoduodenal ligament lymph nodes (1-8 nodes, from 1 x 1 x 1 mm to 43 x 8 x 6 mm in size, situating near the vessels and bile ducts which run in between the layers of the ligament), the gallbladder lymph nodes (1-3 nodes, from 2 x 1 x 1 mm to 15 x 7 x 5 mm in size) situated at the neck of the gallbladder, and the lymph nodes near the common hepatic artery (1-3 nodes, from 3 x 2 x 2 mm to 45 x 12 x 6 mm in size).

[Is there an intestinal lymphatic trunk in man?].

As the analysis of the literature demonstrates, in spite of a rather wide use of the term "tr. intestinalis" and its inclusion into the PNA, it is still not clear what should be understood under this term concerning the human being. It has been stated, by means of coloured mass injections into the efferent lymphatic vessels of the hepatic, celiac and superior mesenteric lymph nodes, that there is no common efferent lymphatic trunk as a result of fusion of these vessels mentioned above.
