ABSTRACT
Objective: To analyze the cases of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma posthumous diagnosis in patients with concomitant atherosclerotic lesions of the femoral arteries. Key points: The present report describes the clinical observation of a rare tumor - intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. Difficulties of its early diagnosis is a combination of symptoms of tumor progression with pain in the lumbar spine, the latter in the presence of concomitant femoral arteries of atherosclerotic lesions, characterized by pain similar localization has led to delay cancer research. Conclusion: Upgrading differential diagnostic procedures with a combination of pain in the lumbar spine with symptoms of tumor progression through the use of a computer and / or positron emission tomography study of plasma levels onkomarkÑra CA-19-9, magnetic resonance contrast holangiopankreatikografii, would in this clinical case in a timely manner to make the correct diagnosis.

Disseminated intestinal and cutaneous thromboangiitis (Kohlmeier-Degos' syndrome) is a rare syndrome of unknown etiology, which is characterized by cutaneous and visceral involvement. Two (cutaneous and visceral) stages are identified. A fatal outcome is inevitable although there may be a long (8-20-year) course of the disease during a benign process. The causes of death are peritonitis, central nervous system impairments, pleurisy, pericarditis. The paper describes a case of disseminated intestinal and cutaneous thromboangiitis (Kohlmeier-Degos' syndrome) in a 32-year-old female patient who has died from intoxication due to severely impaired permeability of the epithelial barrier mainly of the large bowel (diphtheritic inflammation of the mucosa, severe inflammatory edema of the submucous layer, and fibrinous impregnation of the serous membrane).

Comparative study of the structural and functional state of cerebral cortex of adult albino rats after intracerebral allo- and xenotransplantation of embryonic nervous tissue and intravenous injection of umbilical cord blood-derived stem cells at different terms after diffuse-focal cerebral trauma revealed the best cerebroprotective effect on day 7 of posttraumatic period in animals receiving embryonic nervous tissue.
