ABSTRACT
The article presents modern methods of surgical treatment of chronic dacryocystitis, a brief historical review of various options for endonasal endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy is carried out. The method of plastic seamless formation of dacryocystostomy, which does not require intubation of the lacrimal passages and/or using of silicone stoma dilators, is described. Between 2010 and 2019 at The State Budgetary Healthcare Institution of Moscow Area Moscow regional research clinical institute n.a. M.F. Vladimirskiy, according to the developed technique, 32 patients (32 eyes) with chronic dacryocystitis were operated on. According to the results of observation 1 year after surgical treatment, all 100% of patients recorded a positive result (absence or significant decrease in lacrimation, good anatomical visualization of dacryocystostomy with a good tear passage, both passive and during washing the lacrimal passages).

Endolaryngeal cold-plasma microsurgery for the treatment of benign neoplasms in the larynx used under conditions of high-frequency jet ventilation of the lungs is both a diagnostic tool and a method by which the extent of surgical intervention can be planned. It enables the surgeon to remain in direct contact with the operating field via the tip, to make tangential incisions and probing with a high degree of accuracy. Also, the method ensures bloodless and sterile intervention that induces a less pronounced inflammatory reaction compared with that associated with conventional surgical procedures for the removal of benign laryngeal neoplasms. The methods meet the main criteria for basal surgery; it produces the statistically significant improvement of the voice quality and of dynamic endoscopic characteristics of the larynx.

Clinical trials have been conducted of a new therapeutic semiconductor laser from the Mustang series which generates laser radiation in red light range (0.63-0.65 mcm) in impulse mode. Laser therapy was given to 75 patients with different ENT diseases with good effect. A surgical laser unit CTH-10 (YAG-Ho laser, 2.09 mcm) has undergone pilot tests with good results in 12 patients with pain maxillofacial syndromes. Photodynamic therapy was used in upper respiratory tract cancer in 27 patients, the results are analysed.

Highly sensitive instrumental methods such as rhinopneumography, rhinorheography, rheoencephalography and segmented sphygmography were used to measure the efficacy of contact laser therapy of the pterygopalatine ganglion to treat vasomotor rhinitis and trigeminal neuralgia. This method proved efficient in the case of the nervous form of vasomotor rhinitis, Sluder syndrome, and trigeminal neuralgia. Stable remission developed in 60% of patients.

A new device "Raduga-1-F" is designed to use CO2 laser working in both continuous single-mode and impulse mode with modulation frequency up to 150 kHz. This is the first Soviet experience with this device in osteal and osteoplastic maxillofacial surgery showing the advantages of impulse CO2 laser.

The authors describe a method of contact helium-neon laser irradiation of the pterygopalatine node through lateral wall of the nasal cavity. The technique was employed in patients with trigeminal neuralgia, ganglioneuritis of pterygopalatine node, other forms of prosopalgia. Altogether 78 patients were treated. The initial course relieved pain in 56 patients. In 44 patients the remission has been persisting for 2 years.
