[Problems of diagnosis and treatment of atypical mastoiditis]. / K voprosu o diagnostike i lechenii atipichnogo mastoidita.

The specific features of the diagnosis and therapy of the dry form of atypical mastoiditis are discussed. Of great diagnostic importance were local changes in the mastoid area, otoscopic signs in the posterior-superior tympanic membrane and bone compartment of the auditory meatus, hearing impairment, thermographic signs of purulent-destructive lesions in the antrum and other cells of the mastoid process, and X-ray symptoms of bone destruction of the mastoid process. It is obvious that the clinical picture and development of atypical mastoiditis are closely related to the age and reactivity of the patient, irrational use of antibiotics and physiotherapy, concomitant diseases, especially endocrine pathologies.

[Diagnosis of postoperative changes in the frontal and maxillary sinuses]. / Diagnostika posleoperatsionnykh izmenenii v lobnykh i verkhne- cheliustnykh pazukhakh.

The paper specifies x-ray picture of surgically treated frontal and maxillary sinuses in uneventful healing without inflammation relapses (30 cases), in relapse of purulent (21 sinuses), purulent-polypous (15 sinuses), polypous (4 sinuses) sinusitis, in pain syndrome in the region of the operated on maxillary sinus projection (7 patients). X-ray symptoms of postoperative changes in the sinuses, varying in clinical course, are characterized.

[Computed tomography in the diagnosis of postoperative changes of paranasal sinuses]. / Kompíuternaia tomografiia v diagnostike posleoperatsionnykh izmenenii v okolonosovykh pazukhakh.

Basing on the evidence obtained at examinations of 37 patients within 15-year follow-up after surgery on the maxillary and ethmoidal sinuses, the authors analyse potentialities and techniques of computed tomography in diagnosis of the developments in operated on paranasal sinuses. CT demonstrated advantages in examination of paranasal sinus walls and soft tissue alterations in them.

[Immunobiological activity of platinum coordination compounds in a complex with immunoglobulin fragments]. / Immunobiologicheskaia aktivnost' koordinatsionnykh soedinenii platiny v komplekse s fragmentami immunoglobulinov.

The investigation of biological activity of two coordination platinum (II) compounds covalently linked with Fab-fragments of nonspecific immunoglobulin donors on mononuclears of peripheral man blood in vitro and blood elements of mice BALB/c has been done in this paper. There have been stated the decrease of cytotoxic activity of platinum reagents after complexing and modulating influence of platinum-globulin complexes on immunocompetent cells. The prospects of increasing biological activity of immunological preparations on the basis of directed modification by platinum reagents has been also discussed.
