[A comparative evaluation of the results of using a method for the endoscopic denervation of the corpus gastricum and for local laser therapy in the combined treatment of patients with duodenal ulcers].

The authors provide the results of the treatment of patients with duodenal ulcers using common conservative therapy, local laser therapy and endoscopic denervation of the body of the stomach. Inclusion of endoscopic treatment methods into multimodality treatment brought about the enhancement of the treatment efficacy, more pronounced with endoscopic denervation.

[Diagnosis and endoscopic treatment of reflux esophagitis].

The article analyses the use of endoscopic selective drug denervation of the stomach (ESDDS) in 58 patients with reflux esophagitis. Complex appraisal of the efficacy of the treatment showed the result to be good and satisfactory in one month in 96.4% of cases and 6 month after ESDDS in 89.

[Esophageal scintigraphy during endoscopic treatment of reflux esophagitis].

The paper is concerned with analysis of a method of dynamic esophageal scintigraphy modified by the authors for diagnosis and control of therapy of reflux esophagitis combined with duodenal ulcer in 33 patients aged 17 to 72. The proposed method is technically simple, highly effective and can be recommended for use in hospitals equipped with computer-assisted gamma-cameras. Indices of radionuclide clearance of the esophagus reflect its function of self-purification and well correlate with a degree of inflammatory changes of esophageal mucosa.

[Selective endoscopic pharmacologic denervation of the stomach in the treatment of reflux esophagitis associated with duodenal ulcer].

A method of the endoscopic selective medicamentous denervation of the stomach with the help of an alcohol-novocain solution is described. The method was used in 44 patients with reflux-esophagitis which was successfully cupped off in 93.1% of the patients.
