For prophylaxis of severe signs of the postcolectomy and diarrheal syndromes, as well as the secondary anal incontinence syndrome, occurring after extended radical operation--colectomy, extremely low anterior rectal resection, mucosectomy, performed for severe diffuse nontumoral colon diseases, a pelvic small-intestinal anatomic-functional reservoir construction of a new type, which includes a small-intestinal reservoir with ileoendoanal anastomosis, was elaborated. In accordance to data on roentgenological control of the contrast small-intestinal transit the laws of its abdominal localization and peculiarities of morphological reconstruction in late terms after the operation were established. Application of a new type construction elaborated in 26 patients have permitted to reduce the occurrence rate for postoperative complications and the disease recurrences essentially, as well as to improve functional results of treatment.

Highly informative roentgenologic, endoscopic and ultrasonographic (including intraesophageal) methods were applied in the disease diagnosis, permitting to establish the diagnosis, as a rule, accurately before the operation. The diagnosis was verified definitely, basing on intraoperative revision data and the results of express-histologic investigation of the tumor excised.

Objective: The curative potential of various bronchoscopic treatments such as Nd:YAG laser, photodynamic therapy, and brachytherapy for the treatment of intraluminal tumor has been reported previously. Bronchoscopic treatment can be used to treat small intraluminal tumor with curative intent, such as in patients with roentgenologically occult squamous cell cancer. In a retrospective study, we showed that bronchoscopic treatment provided excellent local control with surgical proof of cure in 6 of 11 patients with intraluminal typical bronchial carcinoid.

In patients with so-called roentgenologically occult intraluminal lung tumours, an accurate assessment of tumour size, its location and peribronchial tumour extent is important prior to any intraluminal bronchoscopic therapy (IBT) with curative intent. In twenty patients with so-called occult early-stage lung cancers, clinical outcome was compared to high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) findings prior to IBT. HRCT showed peribronchial tumour extension or nodal enlargement in 7 of the 20 patients (35%), and consequently treatment policy was changed.

From 1982 to 1991, 200 patients with squamous-cell esophageal cancers underwent operation. Sixteen prognostic parameters were prospectively collected and analyzed. The main aim of this study was to define the best preoperative criteria for selection for curative surgery and which patients would benefit most from radical resection.
