[Operations of revascularization in surgery of cerebrovascular aneurysms].

Surgical revascularization of the brain is one of the most important trends in the development of neurosurgery. Restoration of adequate blood flow through pre- and intracerebral arteries promotes prevention and treatment of ischaemic lesions of the brain in various pathology. The present work was aimed at analysing the experience gained in performing revascularizing operations in patients with cerebral aneurysms at the department of neurosurgery.

[Extracorporeal reconstruction of arteries of a transplant of the liver for its subsequent implantation and surgical aspects of arterial anatomy the hepatoduodenal area].

Orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) remains the only and radical method of treating patients with terminal stages of chronic diffuse hepatic diseases (cirrhoses), of patients with various congenital metabolic lesions of the liver, autoimmune diseases characterized by lesions of bile ducts, as well as series of both primary and secondary tumorous hepatic lesions. Liver transplantation is one of the most complicated operative interventions. Difficulty of OLT is determined by multifactorial and well-coordinated work of various medical services at the pre-, intra- and postoperative stage of management.

[Aneurysm of abdominal aorta resulting in vertebral body destruction. Simultaneous prosthetic repair of aorta bifurcation and anterior lumbar fusion with mesh implant].

This case report describes unique situation of dissecting aneurysm of aorta resulting in L3 vertebral body destruction. Diagnostic work-up that helped to elicit proper diagnosis and surgical management is described. Clinical and neuroimaging results of treatment, as well as detailed literature review are given.

[Determining surgical policy in combined atherosclerotic lesion of carotid arteries in patients with uncomplicated aortic aneurysm].

Presented herein are the outcomes of managing a total of twenty-six patients suffering from an uncomplicated abdominal aorta aneurysm with a concomitant atherosclerotic lesion of the coronary arteries, referred to our Clinic over the period form 2003 to 2006. Of these, nineteen (70%) patients were diagnosed with the first (symptom-free) stage of cerebral ischaemic disease, and six presented with the second stage [to have endured a transient ischaemic attack (TIA) within the terms from 16 to 3 months prior to admission]. Two patients had residual events of the previously sustained acute cerebral ischaemia (ACI) (stage 4).

[Experience in treating embologenic thromboses of deep veins of lower extremities].

The present work deals with analysing the outcomes of surgical management carried out in a total of five hundred and sixty-six patients diagnosed as having embologenic thrombosis of the lower-limb deep veins. Of these, 377patients received a cava filter implanted, with the remaining 189 patients being subjected to thrombectomy from the iliac and femoral veins. In nineteen patients, the operation was supplemented by establishing an arteriovenous fistula.
