Various methods of treatment were introduced to improve the results of management of patients with stones in the ureters and early restoration of their working capacity. Emergency ureterolithotomy (197 patients) reduced the incidence of postoperative complications by 2.4 times and the duration of in-patient treatment by 1.8 times. Hermetic sealing of the ureteral suture with glue in ureterolithotomy (43 patients) led to airtightness of the suture in 93.0% of cases. Needle reflexotherapy relieved an attack of renal colics in 94% of patients. After general multicomponent vibration (71 patients) and sonic stimulation (216 patients) the stones were discharged in 80.3 and 93.1% of patients, respectively. The application of organizational measures (creation of a city center of emergency urological service) and introduction of new methods for treatment of ureteral stones reduced the terms of rehabilitation of patients by 1.8 times, the economical effect in this case came to 392,3 rubles per each patient.

Background: Teaching severe pelvic trauma poses a significant challenge in orthopedic surgery education due to the necessity of both clinical reasoning and procedural operational skills for mastery. Traditional methods of instruction, including theoretical teaching and mannequin practice, face limitations due to the complexity, the unpredictability of treatment scenarios, the scarcity of typical cases, and the abstract nature of traditional teaching, all of which impede students' knowledge acquisition.

Objective: This study aims to introduce a novel experimental teaching methodology for severe pelvic trauma, integrating virtual reality (VR) technology as a potent adjunct to existing teaching practices.
