An analysis of long-term results of pylorus-preserving resections of the stomach performed on 540 patients has shown that 44 patients (8.1%) had different postgastroresectional syndromes. Operations were made on 20 patients with severe manifestations of the postgastroresectional syndromes. An analysis of the causes of complications was made as well as the substantiation of the methods of reconstructive interventions. Indications and contraindications for pylorus-preserving resections of the stomach are proposed.

As many as 23 patients (18 women and 5 men) with bilateral neurinomas of auditory nerves were examined. In the authors' opinion, the method of short-latent auditory evoked potentials is one of the most adequate ones as regards the diagnosis of the given type pathology. It is necessary that it may be applied in medical practice.
