[Intravascular laser irradiation of the blood in treating suppurative-necrotic processes of the maxillofacial area]. / Vnutrisosudistoe lazernoe obluchenie krovi v lechenii gnoino-nekroticheskikh protsessov cheliustno-litsevoi oblasti.

The results of investigations evidence a high efficacy of intravascular laser irradiation of the blood in the treatment of maxillofacial pyonecrotic processes. Such treatment is conducive to improvement of the immunologic reactivity, microcirculation, and regeneration. The method is simple, that recommends it for outpatient practice.

[Primary reconstructive operations in cancer of the mouth mucosa and oropharynx]. / Pervichno-rekonstruktivnye operatsii v khirurgii raka slizistoi obolochki rta i rotoglotki.

An analysis of primary reconstructive surgical treatment of 254 patients with carcinoma of the mouth mucosa and oral pharynx was made. The character of operative procedures for different localizations of the tumour is described. The primary reconstructive surgical treatment was shown to reduce the amount of postoperative complications to 11.4%, to keep intact the natural ways of respiration and nutrition at the early postoperative period. If without recidivation, about 70% of the patients continued working.

[Local radiation reactions and injuries in neutron and combined therapy of tumors using the U-120 cyclotron]. / Mestnye luchevye reaktsii i povrezhdeniia pri neitronnoi i sochetannoi terapii opukholei na tsiklotrone U-120.

Early local radiation reactions and radiation damage during fast neutron therapy of head and neck tumors were studied. The frequency of moist epidermitis in a radical course of neutron therapy was 33%, that in combined neutron and photon irradiation was 21%. Mucosal reactions were observed in 30-35% of the patients with tumors of the oral mucosa. The most frequent radiation damage in a long-term period were fibrotic changes of the skin and subcutaneous connective tissue.
