ABSTRACT
Experimental series of 60 cotton rats and 150 white mice infected with echinococcus showed that 80-100% glycerin and 3% peroxide solution were effective scolicidal solutions for inactivation of the parasite. 344 patients have been operated on for hydatid disease with inactivation of the parasite by means of these scolicidal solutions. Glycerin during the surgical management of the hydatid cysts is effective and harmless in uncomplicated hydatid liver disease and any hydatid pulmonary cysts. Glycerin is contraindicated in complicated hydatid liver disease because of immunity disturbance. In complicated hydatid liver disease management of the hydatid cysts by 3% peroxide is effective and harmless. It is necessary to correct the hydatid liver disease patients' immunity in the preoperative and postoperative periods. Tactivin and antiechinococcus drug SK-1 are effective immunomodulators in hydatid liver disease.

This study was experimental and clinical. The experiments were made on 80 cotton rats. The clinical study covered 289 patients operated on for echinococcosis. Earlier studies indicated that echinococcosis is accompanied by secondary immunodeficiency and amino acid metabolic disorders. The homeopathic drug Cheblin-CK-1 used normalized amino acid metabolism 40 days after treatment in these patients. The same properties were displayed by homeopathic drugs.

The authors describe a method of treatment of fractures of the clavicle with the help of closed reposition and fixation with the plaster bandage with a hook-semihoop. In 92 children good results were observed within the period from 6 to 10 years.
