[The modern possibilities for the application of multispiral computed tomography in diagnostics of paranasal sinuses mycetomas]. / Sovremennye vozmozhnosti MSKT v diagnostike mitsetom paranazal'nykh sinusov.

The objective of the present study was the analysis of the health status of 20 patients presenting with histologically verified paranasal sinuses mycetomas (fungus balls) with special reference to CT-semiotics characteristic of the fungal ball as early as during the pre-verification period. The surgical strategy for the management of this condition has been substantiated. It is concluded that the final verification of the pathological process in question is possible only based on the results of the histological studies.

[State of the hemostasis system in patients with malignant III-stage neoplasms of the maxilla and larynx]. / Sostoianie sistemy gemostaza u bol'nykh so zlokachestvennymi novoobrazovaniiami verkhnei cheliusti i gortani III stadii.

Hemostasis of patients with III stage malignant neoplasms of the maxilla and larynx was investigated. We examined 40 patients, 8 of which had maxillary tumor and 32 had laryngeal tumor. The age of the patients varied from 44 to 68 years. It was found that the patients with malignant neoplasms of the maxilla and larynx had hemostatic disorders which formed the thrombohemorrhagic syndrome. During the surgical intervention they displayed the hypocoagulation phase of the syndrome, which indicated the most dangerous prethrombotic state of the blood system.
