[The choice of individual treatment strategy in geriatric patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia with consideration of indications and contraindications for elective isolated and simultaneous interventions].

Aim: To develop a rationale treatment strategy for elective isolated and simultaneous interventions in geriatric patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) aimed at decreasing of complications rate and grade, based on current approach to indications and contraindications.

Materials And Methods: From 2000 to 2015 yy. a total of 639 elderly and senile patients with BPH were undergone to isolated simple prostatectomy, transurethral prostatic resection and simultaneous surgery.

[Systematic approach in performing isolated and simultaneous operations in elderly patients with prostate adenoma].

Aim: To develop a scientifically based system for treating elderly patient with prostate adenoma (AP), aimed at reducing the incidence and severity of complications and mortality after isolated and simultaneous operations.

Materials And Methods: Between 1995 and 2015, 1170 elderly and older patients with prostate adenoma (PA) underwent isolated adenomectomy (AE) or transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) or simultaneous operations (SO). Simultaneous interventions were performed in 335 (28.

[An improved method of risk prediction and prevention of esophagogastroduodenal bleeding in geriatric urology].

With the aim of prediction and prevention of early postoperative esophagogastroduodenal bleeding (EPEGDB), 1296 elderly patients with BPH were examined during the preoperative period before isolated or simultaneous operations. Patients in group 1 (n=357) with a history of gastric or duodenal ulcer underwent esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGDS). In group 2 (n=522) EGDS was performed and gastric acidity was determined using AGM-03 acid-gastrometer.

[Arterial stiffness in elderly patients with chronic kidney disease, in combination with coronary artery disease and hypertension].

The effect of renal dysfunction in combination with arterial hypertension and coronary heart disease (CHD) on the arterial stiffness in elderly patients was studied. The study included 121 patients (56 men and 65 women) aged 75 to 90 years with chronic kidney disease (CKD): 93 patients with stage III and IV CKD and 28 patients with stage I and II CKD with a glomerular filtration rate (GFR) of more than 60 ml/min per 1,73 m2 (control group). To study the method of arterial stiffness ankle-brachial sphygmography, the authors defined parameters of pulse wave velocity (PWV), ankle-brachial index and augmentation index.
