[MODERN VIEW ON INTENSIVE THERAPY OF GASTRO-INTESTINAL HEMORRHAGE].

Basing on analysis of the treatment results in 47 patients for gastro-intestinal hemorrhage, the experience of application of a tranexamic acid in a content of infusion therapy and hemaxam per os was adduced. The data obtained witness the expediency of hemaxam application in a content of therapy on the stage of a hemorrhage letup and for the recurrence prevention.

[Metabolism of collagen in patients with Dupuitren's contracture].

Results of investigation of collagen metabolism in Dupuitren's contracture (DC) were summarized. The patients were operated for calculous cholecystitis and DC stages II - III. The changes revealed witnessed about more expressed degradation of collagen and affection of the elastin components of connective tissue. On background of the pathological process progress in palmar aponeurosis in patients, suffering DC, a content of oxyproline have enhanced trustworthy in urine and reduced in tissue of a changed palmar aponeurosis.

[Morphological changes in hepatic tissues in patients, suffering Dupuytren's contracture and chronic hepatitis].

The results of morphological investigation of hepatic tissues in 98 patients, suffering contracture of Dupuytren, chronic hepatitis and hepatic fibrosis stages I, II i III, were adduced. The patients were operated on for calculous cholecystitis. The attempt to organize the groups with certain morphological changes, depending on the hepatic pathological process persistence (up to 5 yrs, from 5 to 10 yrs, over 10 yrs) have appeared nonfair. The changes revealed are too different and characteristic not only for the examined patients.

[Assessment of functional activity of phagocytic system in patients suffered from Dupuytren's contracture with hepatic fibrosis].

Dupuytren's contracture--a pathology that should not be seen as an isolated lesion tendon-aponeurotic structures of the palmar surface of the hand, but as a disease that requires careful research and a comprehensive, differentiated approach to treatment. The aim of the study was to investigate the functional activity of the phagocytic system of Dupuytren's contracture patients with chronic hepatitis and liver fibrosis in liquidators of the CHNPP accident consequences. The resulting study 188 patients aged 45-65 years showed the correlation of the data of the functional activity of phagocytic system with degree of liver fibrosis, thus objectively assess the patient's condition and make the appropriate correction in the diagnostic criteria as well as in medical and rehabilitative programs.

[Morphological criteria of the operative tactics substantiation in Dupuytren's contracture in patients with chronic hepatitis].

The results of morphological investigations of the palms tissues in the patients, suffering Dupuytren's contracture (DC) and in whom chronic hepatitis was diagnosed, are adduced. The patients were divided on three groups, depending on the hepatic fibrosis grade present. Determination of morphological changes in various stages in patients, suffering hepatic fibrosis stage one and lasting up to 5 years, witnesses the possibility of the DC recurrence and its severity enhancement. The authors stress the necessity of morphological investigations conduction with the objective to determine the hepatic fibrosis grade while surgical intervention planning.

[Pathogenetic aspects of complex treatment of Dupuytren's contracture in patients with chronic hepatitis].

The results of Dupuytren's contracture treatment in patients, suffering chronic hepatitis with the hand deformity grade II and III, in the injured persons and liquidators of the Chernobyl disaster consequences, conducted in 2000-2010 yrs., were adduced. Beginning from the third week, when an active movements had emerged, the patients were treated locally, including lidase and solution, which consisted of dimexid, isotonic saline and furazolidon.
