[Long-term results of the use of lyophilized xenodermoimplants in the surgical treatment of patients with cicatricial stenosis of the larynx]. / Otdalennye rezul'taty primeneniya liofilizirovannykh ksenodermoimplantatov pri khirurgicheskom lechenii bol'nykh s rubtsovym stenozom gortani.

Purpose is to study the long-term results of patients with cicatricial stenosis of the larynx treated with use lyophilized xenodermoimplants for postoperative wound plasty. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The results of treatment of 34 patients (age from 32 to 56 years) with cicatricial stenosis of the larynx were analyzed. A fundamentally new method of surgical treatment of such patients has been developed and introduced into practice, in which lyophilized xenodermoimplants were used for plasty of the wound surface. RESULTS: The proposed technique made it possible in the immediate postoperative period to obtain a good result in 28 (82.4%) patients, satisfactory - in 6 (17.6%). The length of hospital stay was reduced by 8-10 days. In the long-term period (after 6-11 years), 27 patients were examined. Of these, 21 (77.8%) obtained a good result, and 6 (22.2%) - satisfactory. CONCLUSION: The proposed method of surgical rehabilitation of the respiratory function of the larynx with its cicatricial stenosis using lyophilized xenodermoimplants is quite effective and can be proposed for use in clinical practice.

Topographic anatomical guide points were studied on 126 total preparations of the temporal bones. The relation of the temporal bone pyramid angles in sagittal and horizontal planes, the distance from spina suprameatum to the pyramid top, from spina suprameatum to promontorium, from promontorium to internal carotid artery with the shape of the skull has been established.
