[Duodenoplasty in combination with segmentary resection of gastric corpus in preservation of innervated pyloric-antral segment in patients with decompensated duodenal stenosis of the ulcer origin].

A new method of surgical treatment of decompensated duodenal stenosis, consisting of duodenoplasty with duodenal ulcer excision, segmentary resection of gastric corpus with preservation of pyloroantral portion and formation of fundocorporoantrumanastomosis on the whole opening, was presented.

[The diagnosis and surgical treatment of nodular euthyroid and toxic goiter].

The authors discuss their experience in treating 815 patients who underwent an operation for nodular euthyroid and toxic goiter. Thermography was used in the examination of 367 patients and the results were compared with those of radioisotope scanning of the thyroid, intraoperative findings, and the results of histological study. It was established that in complex with clinical methods of examination, thermography is very important in making the differential diagnosis of thyroid diseases.
