© 2019 Background: Relatively few studies investigated the importance of frailty in radical cystectomy (RC) patients. We tested the ability of frailty, using the Johns Hopkins Adjusted Clinical Groups indicator, to predict early perioperative outcomes after RC. Methods: RC patients were identified within the National Inpatient Sample database (2000–2015). The effect of frailty, age and Charlson Comorbidity Index were tested in five separate multivariable models predicting: (1) complications, (2) failure to rescue (FTR), (3) in-hospital mortality, (4) length of stay (LOS) and (5) total hospital charges (THCs). All models were weighted and adjusted for clustering, as well as all available patient and hospital characteristics. Results: Of 23,967 RC patients, 5833 (24.3%) were frail, 7721 (32.2%) were aged ≥75 years and 2832 (11.8%) had CCI ≥2. Frailty, age ≥75 years and CCI ≥2 were non-overlapping in 86.3% of the cohort. Any two or three of these features were recorded in 12.4 and 1.3%, respectively. Frailty was an independent predictor of all five examined endpoints and the magnitude of its association was stronger or at least equal than that of age ≥75 years and CCI ≥2. Conclusion: Frailty, advanced age and comorbidities represent non-overlapping patients’ characteristics. Of those, frailty represents the most consistent and strongest predictor of early adverse outcomes after RC. Ideally, all three indicators should be considered in retrospective, as well as prospective analyses. Pre-surgical recognition of frail patients should be ideally incorporate in clinical practice in order to address these patients to multimodal pre-habilitation programs that may potentially improve the perioperative prognosis.

© 2019 Elsevier Inc. Objective: To evaluate the pathologic response, safety, and feasibility of nephrectomy following receipt of immune checkpoint inhibition (ICI) for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Methods: Patients who underwent nephrectomy for RCC after exposure to nivolumab monotherapy or combination ipilimumab/nivolumab were reviewed. Primary surgical outcomes included operative time (OT), estimated blood loss (EBL), length of stay (LOS), readmission rates, and complication rates. Pathologic response in the primary and metastatic sites constituted secondary outcomes. Results: Eleven nephrectomies (10 radical, 1 partial) were performed in 10 patients after ICI with median postoperative follow-up 180 days. Six patients received 1 to 4 cycles of ipilimumab/nivolumab, while 5 received 2 to 12 infusions of nivolumab preoperatively. Five surgeries were performed laparoscopically, and 4 patients underwent concomitant thrombectomy. One patient exhibited complete response (pT0) to ICI, and 3/4 patients who underwent metastasectomy for hepatic, pulmonary, or adrenal lesions exhibited no detectable malignancy in any of the metastases resected. No patients experienced any major intraoperative complications, and all surgical margins were negative. Median OT, EBL, and LOS were 180 minutes, 100 ml, and 4 days, respectively. Four patients experienced a complication, including 3 that were addressed with interventional radiology procedures. One patient died of progressive disease >3 months after surgery, and 1 patient succumbed to pulmonary embolism complicated by sepsis. No complications or readmissions were noted in 6 patients. Conclusion: Nephrectomy following ICI for RCC is safe and technically feasible with favorable surgical outcomes and pathologic response. Timing of the nephrectomy relative to checkpoint dosing did not seem to impact outcome. Biopsies of lesions responding radiographically to ICI may warrant attention prior to surgical excision.

BACKGROUND: This retrospective clinical study aims to present results of experience with a novel guided surgery system with a sleeveless, open-frame structure, in which the surgical handpiece (not the drills used for preparation) is guided. METHODS: This study was based on an evaluation of the records of partially edentulous patients who had been treated with a sleeveless open-frame guided surgery system (TWIN-Guide®, 2Ingis, Brussels, Belgium), between January 2015 and December 2017. Inclusion criteria were patients with good systemic/oral health and a minimum follow-up of 1 year. Exclusion criteria were patients who had been treated without a guide, or with a guide with sleeves, patients with systemic/oral diseases and who did not have a follow-up of 1 year. The main outcomes were surgical (fit and stability of the surgical guide, duration of the intervention, implant stability, and any intra-operative or immediate post-operative complication), biologic, and prosthetic. RESULTS: Thirty-eight patients (24 males, 14 females; mean age 56.5 ± 14.0 years) were included in the study. These patients had been treated with 110 implants inserted by means of 40 sleeveless, open-frame guides. With regard to fit and stability, 34 guides were excellent, 4 acceptable, and 2 inadequate for use. The mean duration of the intervention was 23.7 (± 6.7) minutes. Immediately after placement, 2 fixtures were not stable and had to be removed. Two patients experienced pain/swelling after surgery. The 108 surviving implants were restored with 36 single crowns and 32 fixed partial prostheses (24 two-unit and 8 three-unit bridges); these restorations survived until the 1-year follow-up, with a low incidence of biologic and prosthetic complications. CONCLUSIONS: Within the limits of this study, this novel guided surgery system with sleeveless, open frame-structure guides seems to be clinically reliable; further studies on a larger sample of patients are needed to confirm these outcomes.

© 2019, Advanced Scientific Research. All rights reserved. A topical problem in traumatology is the choice of treatment methods for ankle fractures. The consideration of the anatomical and functional features of the ankle, condition of soft tissues in the area of fractures and the degree of edema in the ankle region is of great importance when choosing a particular treatment method. Therefore, reducing the degree of surgical aggression during surgical treatment of these injuries is an important task.. The aim of this study was to examine the possibilities of improving the results of surgical treatment of patients with ankle fractures with minimally invasive osteosynthesis technologies. This study presents the experience of treating 62 patients with fractures of the ankle joint. Two statistically homogeneous groups of patients with ankle fractures were identified. In one group, osteosynthesis with minimally invasive osteosynthesis techniques was used in 34 patients; in the other, osteosynthesis was performed in a conventional manner in 28 patients. A comparative analysis of the immediate and long-term results of treatment of patients in the study groups was carried out. The advantage of closed technology of osteosynthesis was proved. The preservation of the blood supply to the surrounding soft tissues with closed osteosynthesis provides a greater likelihood of fracture fusion, therefore the only condition in such cases is to eliminate the interposition of soft tissues in the area of lateral and medial ankle fractures.. The analysis of the obtained immediate and remote results of osteosynthesis in the two groups showed the best efficiency when using minimally invasive closed metal implantationtechnologies, especially when there are skin problems in the area of the injured ankle joint.

© 2018 Vitebsk State Medical University. All rights reserved. Objective: To study the efficacy and to establish expedience of antibiotic treatment for diverticulitis. Methods: The retrospective analysis of 141 medical histories was made of patients with acute uncomplicated diverticulitis, who were treated during the period from 2013 to 2016 years. Antibiotics were prescribed to treat 85 (60.3%) patients (the main group), 56 (39.7%) patients (the control group) were not given antibacterial drugs. To assess the treatment effectiveness, a dynamic assessment of the clinical picture and laboratory indicators was performed. In the long-term period patients were questioned to determine the nature of the course and the occurrence of relapses of diverticulitis. Results: The duration of hospitalization of the main group patients was 10.8+3.2 days (M+o), control -11.2+2.6 days (M+o), p>0.05. During the treatment, disease progression was registered in none of the patients. In the main group the body temperature was normalized after 1.6 + 0.4 days, in the control group after 1.7+0.3 days, p>0.05. The level of leukocytes came back to normal in the main group at 2.7+0.8 days, in the control group at 2.9+0.7 days (p>0.05). Long-term results were evaluated in 82 (96.5%) of patients and 55 (98.2%) in the control group. Use of antibiotic treatment in diverticulitis had no effect in the remote period for redevelopment of complications (OR 1.19; CI 0.58-2.44), the need to seek medical care (OR 1.11; CI 0.52-2.34), need for hospitalization (OR 0.95, CI 0.3-2.96) and surgical treatment (OR 1.36, CI 0.34-7.69). Conclusions: The use of antibiotic treatment for diverticulitis does not affect the outcome of treatment and does not determine the further course of the disease. Taking into account the increasing resistance of microorganisms to antibiotics and the need to optimize costs with limited funding for health care, it is advisable to exclude the use of antibacterial drugs for the treatment of uncomplicated diverticulitis.

However, many of the modern chemotherapies are associated with cardiovascular toxicities that increases cardiovascular risk in cancer patients, including hypertension, heart failure, thrombosis and thromboembolism, cardiomyopathy, and arrhythmias. These side effects limitation restrict treatment options and farther perspectives. With increasing use of modern chemotherapies and prolongation of the cancer patients survival, the incidence of cardiovascular disease in this patient population will continue to increase. Accordingly,careful assessment and management of cardiovascular risk factors in cancer patients by oncologists and cardiologists working together is essential for optimal care.

Exosomes (vesicles with the size of 30-150 nm) are formed in multivesicular bodies (MVB) by invagination of early endosome membranes and mediate intercellular interactions. Exosomes are secreted by various kinds of cells, their content might be represented by proteins, lipids and nucleic acids, which reflect the functional state of donor cells. The effect of exosomes on recipient cells depends on their quantity and characteristics of their «load». Comparatively recently, placental exosomes secreted by various placental cells have been isolated from blood of pregnant women. A specific protein - placental alkaline phosphatase (PLAP) - has been determined for these exosomes. PLAP-positive exosomes can be found in maternal blood as soon as in the first trimester of pregnancy, their number increases with maturation of the foetus and reaches its maximum by the moment of birth. Although the functional significance of placental exosomes is still investigated, some authors relate changes in the placental exosome profile (their number and composition) to placental dysfunction underlying the development of complications of pregnancy. Isolation of exosomes from blood of pregnant women (fluid biopsy) and determination of their biological characteristics might be regarded as early noninvasive diagnosis of structural and functional placental abnormalities. The appearing evidence of blastocyst-secreted exosomes and their role in modulating maternal immunity and endometrial receptiveness during implantation are also promising. The review presents data about the biogenesis, structure and functions of exosomes and the role of placenta-associated exosomes in the development of physiological and complicated pregnancy, and also about the possibility of using exosomes as a marker of the state of the blastocyst in assisted reproductive technologies, in particular, in oocyte donation and surrogate motherhood.

Perioperative antimicrobial prophylaxis (PAP) involves administration of antimicrobial agents (AMA) to patients undergoing a surgical intervention and aims to reduce the risk of postoperative infectious complications, especially at surgical sites. In the present work we assess efficiency and safety of AMA used for prevention of postoperative infectious complications. In the course of our study we pre-analyzed 576 medical histories of post-op patients aged 18 to 87 years (mean age M ± SD was 57.4 ± 14.5 years), of which 347 (60.2%) were male and 229 (39.8%) female. Only 481 histories were selected for final analysis. We assessed the choice of antibacterial therapy, the frequency of adverse reactions (AR) and infectious complications and the type of the latter. PAP regimens were consistent with the official guidelines in 207 (43.04%) cases. PAP recommendations were ignored in 274 cases (56.96%), and the timing was wrong in 364 cases (75.7%). Incorrect dosages were administered in 225 cases (46.8%). We also discovered an association between irrational PAP regimens and 1) the length of patient's stay in the intensive care unit (p = 0.003 and p < 0.005), 2) the frequency of reoperations associated with infection (p = 0.001), 3) mortality rates (p = 0.002), and 4) isolation of strains with multidrug resistance (p = 0.016). We conclude that PAP regimens for the inpatients of surgical wards are often compromised by failure to comply with the official guidelines, wrong timing and incorrect dosage, which negatively affects hospital statistics.

The objective is to perform comparative analysis of intra- and postoperative complications of retroperitoneoscopic radical nephrectomy (RRN) and laparoscopic radical nephrectomy (LRN) for large tumors. Materials and methods. The study includes examination and treatment data for 108 patients with stage T1–3a renal cell carcinoma. Results and conclusion. A number of advantages of RRN compared to LRN were demonstrated associated with shorter surgery duration with fast processing of the renal pedicle, lower blood loss, lower use of analgesics in the postoperative period, shorter duration of hospitalization, and quick recovery after the surgery. The rate of intra- and postoperative complications for RRN was 19.2 and 17.3 %, for LRN – 33.9 and 37.5 %, respectively. Complications associated with abdominal organs were absent for RRN. After LRN, the rate of serious complications was significantly higher than after RRN.

© ABC-press Publishing House. All rights reserved. Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men. Radical prostatectomy (open, laparoscopic, or robotic) remains the main method of surgical treatment for prostate cancer. However, minimally invasive therapies for prostate cancer are becoming increasingly popular in recent years, because they have similar efficacy as open surgery. The most studied minimally invasive therapies are cryoablation, high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), and brachytherapy. Despite the minimization of damage to neighboring structures, minimally invasive procedures can cause a number of complications, like any other surgical interventions. Each method has specific limitations and the most typical complications. Since multiple minimally invasive methods are currently available, we can ensure an individual approach to each particular patient, thus using the advantages of the methods and avoiding possible complications. This article covers the most frequent and severe complications of minimally invasive therapies for prostate cancer, as well as the methods of their prevention and treatment.

Cases of dental needle fracture during mandibular block were studied in the last 10 years. Despite dental anesthesia development, the cases of needle fracture occur regularly in the world practice. Some of these complications has iatrogenic nature while others may be attributed to independent reasons like patients' sharp movement and needle manufacturing defect. In most of the cases the needle migrates to surrounding anatomical spaces making operative removing a challenging task. Subsequent surgical removing of a foreign body has severe consequences to patient in the form of a large operating injury, long-term disability and functional limitations. The article presents an algorithm for prevention and emergency care for a patient with dental needle fracture during mandibular block.

A literature review provided, on the usage of various schemes of perioperational anticoagulation therapy (ACT) in atrial fibrillation patients undergoing scheduled surgery. It is noted that clinicians quite often pass through a situation when patients taking ACT require invasive investigations and surgery. Perioperational management of such category of patients is complicated as, on the one hand, the surgery under ACT is associated with intraoperational hemorrhagic complications, and, on the other hand, ACT cessation might increase the risk of thrombotic complications. The variants assessed, of different periprocedural ACT in patients taking vitamin K antagonists. It was found that as an alternative to continuous ACT recently, bridge therapy with low molecular weight heparins applied, aiming the decrease of the risk of bleeding in adequate thromboprophylaxis. The results of clinical trials provided on the assessment of bridge therapy in surgery. Risk stratification approaches presents for thromboembolic and hemorrhagic complications in surgery.

© 2018 Media Sphera Publishing Group.All rights reserved. Purpose: To assess the prevalence of atrial fibrillation (AF) and use of antithrombotic agents in adult patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Materials and Methods. We consecutively enrolled all ACS patients (n=1155) who were hospitalized in two Moscowbased percutaneous coronary intervention centers (each center performs over 500 PCIs a year) between October 2017 and February 2018. AF was diagnosed in 204 patients (17.7%). The risk of thromboembolic complications was assessed using the CHA2DS2-VASc Score. The risk of hemorrhagic complications was assessed using the HAS-BLED Score. The data were processed using StatSoft Statistica 10.0 and IBM SPSS Statistics v.23 software. Results. The prevalence of diagnosed AF was 13.6%, while the prevalence of undiagnosed AF was 4.1%. Of the 179 discharged patients with AF, only 2 had a low risk of ischemic stroke (IS). One hundred and fifty patients (83.8%) eligible for oral anticoagulant therapy received oral anticoagulants. Patients with diagnosed AF were administered oral anticoagulants (OACs) significantly more often than patients with undiagnosed AF [125 (91.9%) vs. 25 (58.1%), р 0.001]. Novel oral anticoagulants (NOACs) were administered four times more often than vitamin K antagonists [120 (80.0%) vs. 29 (19.3%), р0.001]. Rivaroxaban was used in 51.3% of cases. Of the 29 patients treated with warfarin, only 3 (10.3%) achieved the target international normalized ratio (INR) at discharge. Of the 107 patients who underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), 77 patients (80%) received an OAC and two antiplatelet agents (with 74% receiving this three-agent therapy for one month), 11 patients (10.3%) received an OAC and an antiplatelet agent, and 18 patients (16.8%) received two antiplatelet agents. The only antiplatelet agent used as part of the three-agent therapy was clopidogrel. The three-agent therapy without PCI was administered in 43.1% of cases. Conclusion. We found that the prevalence of AF in patients with ACS was high. The fact that doctors administered NOACs suggests that they are aware of the need to use these agents to prevent thromboembolic complications in AF patients.

© Bionika Media Ltd. Aim. To estimate the effectiveness of the thrombin generation assay (TGA) in identifying high thrombogenic risk in pregnant women. Material and methods. The study comprised 30 healthy non-pregnant women (control group) and 32 women in the third trimester of pregnancy. Of the latter group, 22 women with complicated pregnancy comprised the study group while the remaining ten women made up the comparison group. After delivery, the patients in the study group were divided into subgroups with a favorable (n = 15) and adverse (n = 7) pregnancy outcomes. The state of the hemostatic system was examined using standard coagulation tests and TGA. Results. Thrombin generation assessed as endogenous thrombin potential (ETP), was statistically significantly higher in pregnant than in non-pregnant women (2300 ± 400 vs. 1700 ± 400, respectively, p <0.005). The patients with adverse pregnancy outcomes had statistically significantly higher ETP compared with women with favorable outcomes (2700 ± 600 vs. 2300 ± 300, respectively, p <0.005). Conclusion. TGA can be used to predict adverse pregnancy outcomes. Elevated ETP is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes.

© Bionika Media Ltd. Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is a systemic process that affects all organs and tissues of the body and diagnosed upon fulfilment of clinical and biological criteria. The currently accepted clinical morbidities affect two organs: the vascular tree, leading to thrombotic manifestations, and the utero-placental unit, leading to pregnancy complications. Obstetric APS (oAPS) is an autoimmune disease leading to the synthesis of autoantibodies directly capable of activating key cells of vascular and/or placental pathophysiology. During pregnancy, placenta serves as the most important organ. Violations of the placenta function due to endothelial dysfunction, ischemia, and placenta microthrombosis are responsible for the development of obstetric complications: pre-eclampsia, HELLP-syndrome, placental abruption.This manuscript describes a data of a different clinical experience in the field of APS. APA directly or indirectly affects the implantation process and early embryonic stages. The thorough systematic review on histopathology in the placenta of oAPS women found, on the sincytiotrophoblast (sTB) side, a decreased trophoblast (TB) proliferation, increased TB death rates, a decreased syncytialisation process, an increased sTB death rate with increased cell debris, and areas of sTB denudation and of fibrin deposition. Experimental in vitro data confirmed that ab2GP1 Abs decrease fusion of TB cells, thus inhibiting sTB formation. Reduced eTB invasion was associated with decreased placenta anchorage, reduced transformation of maternal spiral arteries and reduced maternal flow to the placenta, mirroring the conditions in placenta-mediated late pregnancy complications such as preeclampsia.Our studies and over 20 years of clinical experience indicate the presence of etiopathogenetic relation between APS and obstetric complications and the high efficacy of prophylaxis with anticoagulants when it starts early, since the period of preconception.
