Objective: To analyze morbidity and factors affecting mortality in emergency abdominal surgery in the Russian Federation.
Material And Methods: The study included patients with acute abdominal diseases aged 18 years and older. All patients were hospitalized in emergency surgical care departments of 3.194 state healthcare institutions in 84 regions of the Russian Federation in 2018. Morbidity, surgical activity and mortality were analyzed.
Results: There were 680.337 cases of hospitalization in emergency surgical department, morbidity rate was 582 cases per 100 000. The most common emergency surgical diseases were acute appendicitis (142.3 cases per 100 000), acute cholecystitis (139.0 cases per 100 000) and acute pancreatitis (131.2 cases per 100 000). Surgery was performed in 399.051 (58.7%) patients. In-hospital mortality rate was 2.4% (16 051 cases).
Conclusion: There are certain factors affecting mortality rate in acute abdominal diseases. The leading problems in organizing emergency surgical care in Russia are insufficient equipment of rural and small municipal surgical hospitals, different staffing with surgeons in rural areas and large cities and late hospitalization of patients.

Background: Hypertrophic scar (HS) is a fibroproliferative disorder resulting from abnormal healing of skin tissue after injury. Although various therapies are currently employed in clinical to treat HSs, there is no widely accepted standard therapy. Micro-plasma radiofrequency (MPR) and autologous chyle fat grafting are emerging treatments for this condition, and they have demonstrated promising therapeutic outcomes in clinical applications.

Background: Lung cancer surgery is associated with a high incidence of chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP), which necessitates long-term analgesic prescriptions. However, while essential for managing pain, these have shown various adverse effects. Current guidelines recommend using peripheral nerve blocks over epidural anaesthesia for perioperative analgesia in minimally invasive thoracic surgery (MITS).

Background: Exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) is common in children with asthma but can be present also in children without asthma, especially athletes. Differential diagnosis includes several conditions such as exercise-induced laryngeal obstruction (EILO), cardiac disease, or physical deconditioning. Detailed medical history, clinical examination and specific tests are mandatory to exclude alternative diagnoses.

Arterial variations in the upper limb are of significant clinical importance, especially in procedures such as venepunctures, coronary artery bypass grafts, trauma reconstructive surgeries, brachial plexus nerve blocks, and breast reconstructions. This report presents previously undocumented arterial variations in the upper limbs in a 95-year-old female cadaveric donor. We observed bilateral superficial ulnar arteries originating at the cubital fossa, deviating from the previously reported origin at the proximal brachial artery.
