Results of examination of 324 biopsies from hepatopancreatoduodenal zone were analyzed. The biopsy was performed as roentgentelevision- or US-guided procedure with Pro-Mag 2.2 device. There were no complications. Percutaneous endoprosthesis of biliary ducts was performed in 127 patients (89% of them were older than 65 years) with obstructive jaundice. Roentgen- or gastroscopy-guided hepaticogastroanastomosis was formed in 36 patients with different diseases. The follow-up was to 18 months in malignant tumors, and to 26 months in benign strictures. Video-assisted drainage of gall bladder in acute cholecystitis was performed in 436 patients with cholelithiasis and severe concomitant diseases. Results of many-stage treatment of 207 patients with choledocholithiasis were analyzed, residual disease was revealed in 11 (5.6%) patients.

[Auto-recanalization of anastomosis in the surgery of esophagus and large intestine ]. / Autorekanaliziruiushchiesia anastomozy v khirurgii pishchevoda i tolstoi kishki.

The authors developed a techniques of anastomosis formation after gastrectomy, proximal resection of the stomach, and resection of the descending colon and rectum in which the anastomosis begin functioning a few days after the operation. They called them autorecanalizing anastomoses. From the moment of the operation and to autorecanalization the lumina of the anastomosed organs are drained by original methods. The purpose of the developed techniques for the formation of autorecanalizing anastomoses and the methods for decompression and draining of the operated on organs is to reduce the risk of suture incompetence and the hazardous effect of this complication on the patient's life.
