[Comparison of early operative treatment and 48-hour conservative treatment in small bowel obstruction (COTACSO): intermediate results].

Unlabelled: Optimal treatment for adhesive small bowel obstruction (SBO) is not defined. Surgery is the only method of treatment for obvious strangulating SBO. Non-operative management (NOM) is widely used among patients with low risk of strangulation, i.

[Russian study on brain aneurysm surgery: a continuation (RIHA II)].

Objective: To assess the main performance indicators of neurosurgical departments in surgical treatment of cerebral aneurysms in the Russian Federation.

Material And Methods: We analyzed 22 neurosurgical departments (19 regional and 3 federal hospitals) in 2017 and 2021. The study enrolled 6.

Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy for portal annular pancreas.

Portal annular pancreas is a little-known anatomical variant of annular pancreas. In these patients, pancreatic parenchyma encircles the portal vein annularly. This anomaly is associated with high risk of postoperative pancreatic fistula in pancreatic surgery.

Acute mesenteric ischemia - a 15-year experience of surgical treatment in a multi-field hospital.

Objective: To evaluate the results of surgical treatment of arterial acute mesenteric ischemia in a single hospital over a 15-year period (from 2007 to 2022).

Material And Methods: There were 385 patients with acute occlusion of superior or inferior mesenteric artery over a 15-year period. The causes of acute mesenteric ischemia were thromboembolism of superior mesenteric artery (51%), its thrombosis (43%) and thrombosis of inferior mesenteric artery (6%).

[Gas in superior mesenteric artery and celiac axis as a rare CT-sign of extensive bowel necrosis].

The authors report endovascular treatment of acute thromboembolic occlusion of superior mesenteric artery in a 75-year-old patient whose postoperative period was complicated by massive reperfusion and translocation syndrome. Contrast-enhanced CT in 12 hours after successful thrombectomy from superior mesenteric artery revealed CT signs of irreversible bowel lesion, i.e.

[Neuropsychiatric presentations of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis].

Neuropsychiatric presentations are observed in a substantial number of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Severe behavioral disorders develop in ALS combined with frontotemporal dementia, which are considered to be a disease continuum. Psychiatric disorders in ALS with predominantly motor symptoms are less prominent and mostly presented with apathy.

[Morphological substantiation of laparoscopic suturing of stomach ulcer with formation of a covered perforation].

Objective: Morphological substantiation of laparoscopic suturing of gastric ulcer with formation of a covered perforation.

Material And Methods: To analyze morphological tissue reaction in surgical area, we used 12 Chinchilla rabbits. All animals were divided into 2 groups by 6 animals.

[Peripheral vertigo as onset of an immune-mediated disorder].

In this article we present a clinical case of a female patient, 45 years old, with autoimmune encephalitis with antibodies to glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) beginning clinically with vertigo. According to high frequency of vestibular symptoms at the beginning and high frequency of admission to otoneurologist GAD-associated pathology should be included in differential diagnosis in complicated clinical cases with vertigo. These patients should be sent to neurologist.

[Autoimmune encephalitis in psychiatric institution (clinical case)].

Currently there is a new concept of «molecular neuropsychiatry» which aim is identification of biomarkers and biological substrates for mental disorders. Autoimmune encephalitis can start with psychiatric symptoms in 60% of cases. In this article we described a clinical case of a patient, 31 years old, with GABAb-associated AE started with acute polymorphic psychosis.

[Long-term postoperative outcomes in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy].

Unlabelled: Epilepsy surgery is effective in 30-82% of patients with drug-resistant epilepsy. However, risk factors of unfavorable outcomes after epilepsy surgery require further study.

Objective: To evaluate risk factors of favorable and unfavorable long-term postoperative outcomes in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy.

[Malignant cerebellar infarction: clinical course and surgical treatment].

Aim: To clarify the indications for surgical treatment of malignant cerebellar infarction (CI).

Material And Methods: Eighty patients with CI were studied. The malignancy of CI was understood as the development of mass effect in the posterior cranial fossa, accompanied by the decrease in consciousness due to compression of the brain stem and/or the development of occlusive hydrocephalus.

[Surgical treatment of cerebral aneurysms in the Russian Federation].

Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the results of surgical treatment of cerebral aneurysms in the Russian Federation.

Material And Methods: We analyzed performance indicators in neurosurgical departments of regional and federal health institutions of the Russian Federation for 2017. The results of surgical treatment of cerebral aneurysms (CAs) were analyzed in 19 regional vascular centers (RVCs) in several federal districts and in 3 federal centers (FCs) with the most dynamically developing vascular neurosurgery and smoothly running system of statistical data processing.

[The Edinburgh Cognitive and Behavioral ALS Screen (ECAS): a Russian version.].

Aim: To translate into Russian and adapt the Edinburgh Cognitive and Behavioral ALS Screen (ECAS) for patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

Material And Methods: Medical care for ALS patients requires participation of a multidisciplinary team. More than one third of patients with ALS suffer from cognitive and behavioral disturbances, and it influences decisions of the team, patients and family.
