Analysis of efficiency of sialendoscopy in patients with sialolithiasis

The aim of this research was to analyze 106 clinical observations in which sialendoscopy was performed for diagnosis and treatment patients with sialolithiasis. This research showed, that endoscopy of the major salivary gland ductal system allows to obtain information not only on a sialolith, but also on a condition of ductal system. The obtained data define a method of further treatment. Sialendoscopy can be used not only as diagnostic method, but also as an independent method for sialolith removing or as an assistance. The possibility of sialolith removing depends on its mobility, the size of salivary stone, localization and a salivary duct condition.

[Sinus lift and dental implantation after endosurgical treatment of odontogenic maxillary sinusitis].

The long-term results of dental implant placement in patients with the history of odontogenic maxillary sinusitis are assessed in retrospective study. Maxillary sinusotomy and endoscopic surgery procedures are compared in regard to complications risks after subsequent sinus lift and dental implantation, the latter proving to be method of choice in such cases.

[Mandible bone grafting by intraoral access].

The efficiency of intraoral approach to reconstruction defects of the mandibula was analyzed. Received results testified to high efficiency of intraoral approach to bone plastic of mandibula as the way allowing to achieve decrease of number of postoperative complications, terms of rehabilitation of patients and to ensure optimum anatomofunctional and aesthetic results.

[Complications of dental filling materials egestion into maxillary sinus--diagnostics and treatment].

Frequency of dental filling materials egestion into maxillary sinus was determined. Based upon their own clinical observations sinusitis (caused by dental filling material) characteristic features were determined, as well as diagnostic peculiarities. Open and endoscopic methods of treatment were compared. Factors determining the inflammatory character of sinusitis reaction were analyzed.

[Comparative evolution surgical accesses to temporo-mandibular joint].

In experiment on 30 corpses of adult people criteria of an operational wound (depth of a wound, a corner of operational action, an axis of operational action, a corner of an inclination of operational action) were studied at preauricularis, intrauricularis, intrauriculo-temporalis and posterior mandibullaris access to temporo-mandibular joint (TMJ). New surgical intrauriculo-temporalis access to the joint is substantrated. On the basis of the analysis of 289 operations at 268 patients the indications to a choice of surgical access were developed at various diseases and damages of TMJ.

[Endoscopic technologies in maxillofacial surgery]. / Endoskopicheskie tekhnologii v cheliustno-litsevoi khirurgii.

Endoscopic operations in 107 patients with numerous maxillofacial diseases are analyzed. Endoscopic technologies were used in diseases of the maxillary sinus, temporomandibular joint, injuries to the facial nerve, and cysts of the jaws. New methods for surgical treatment of mandibular fractures, zygomatico-orbital complex, cysts of the jaws are proposed. The results of utilization of endoscopic technologies in maxillofacial surgery are analyzed and their high efficacy and good prospects are demonstrated.

[Reconstruction of the visceral cranium by the replantation of a resected bone segment subjected to extracorporeal freezing in benign tumors and dysplastic processes]. / Rekonstruktsiia litsevogo cherepa metodom replantatsii rezetsirovannogo segmenta kosti, podvergnutogo ékstrakorporal'nomu zamorazhivaniiu, pri dobrokachestvennykh opukholiakh i displasticheskikh protsessakh.

The new method for surgical treatment of benign tumors and dysplastic processes in the facial skull bones includes resection of the involved segment of the bone, its mechanical treatment, extracorporeal freezing, sterilization, and replantation. Biophysical studies revealed that 10-min freezing of the preparation in liquid nitrogen followed by slow defrosting kills tumor cells. Animal experiments demonstrated excellent osteoplastic properties of thus treated replants. Based on the results of treatment of 29 patients, the authors defined the indications for such treatment and demonstrated its high efficacy in benign tumors and dysplastic processes in the facial skull.
