A total of 25 patients with postural phobic dizziness were examined. Somatic state and neurological status were assessed, neurovisualization and stabilometric investigation were carried out as well as a neuropsychological testing using estimation scales. The efficiency of complex rehabilitation was revealed including vestibular gymnastics, stabilometric training, psychotherapy, and pharmacotherapy in correction of psychoemotional disturbances.

The sensitivity to different clinical antibiotics of P. aeruginosa strains with different ability for pigment production (Carbenicillin, Levofloxacin, Ciprofloxacin, Cefoperazone, Imipenem, Meronenem, Amikacin, Gentamicin) has been determined. The moderate statistical association between chromogenesis and sensitivity to antibiotics for the majority of preparations has been found out, close correlation being noted for aminoglycosides.

The first domestic experience of translational cellular immunotherapy application in recipients of cadaveric renal allograft is presented. We present the analysis of the clinical, laboratory and immunological data and also the results of transplant protocol biopsy on the 30th and 180th days after transplantation. Clinical, laboratory, immunological, and histological benefits in patients of the main group were revealed. As а result, some mechanisms that explain the possibility to form immunological tolerance were established.

Some drugs used in chemotherapy of patients with malignant tumors, together with the definite efficiency, is capable of inducing some side effects. In particular, while using capecytabin, development of severe complication – palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia – is quite possible. Our own observation of this complication is presented in the article.

The aim of the study was to determine the content of the molecules of middle mass before and after a simulated «diving» in the blood plasma of subjects who had different initial resistance to decompression sickness, toxic effect of nitrogen and oxygen. An increase in the concentration of the middle mass molecules was revealed after a simulated dive in a pressure chamber in the blood plasma of subjects who were unstable to the adverse effects of hyperbaric factors. The changes discovered are the most prominent in the development of decompression gas-generation and toxic effect of oxygen. Unidirectional action of unfavorable hyperbaric factors was shown to induce human endogenous intoxication with possible development of the syndrome of «hyperbaric intoxication».

The article presents the results of using low-intensity laser irradiation in order to prevent the development of postoperative wound complications in patients with acute and chronic arterial ischemia of the lower extremities after the leg amputation. The results of ultrasonic research are presented. The risk factors of development of wound complications were investigated.

We carried out a retrospective analysis of 130 case histories of patients who were treated at the Clinic of General Surgery of the Saratov State Medical University from 2010 to 2012. It shows worsening factors of treatment results in patients with purulent complications of diabetic foot syndrome.

The authors describe a 74-year-old patient with a verified, rare for Europe Kimura’s disease, its classic radiographic and histological appearance, persistent course, and resistance to the treatment methods.

Scientific publications devoted to the contemporary prospective selected and combined extracorporeal modalities to treat complications after renal allotransplantation were analyzed involving pyoseptic processes and viral hepatites.

The article presents etiological factors of iatrogenic character enabling maxillary sinusitis onset as well as its pathogenesis, clinical course features, and contemporary diagnosis. Surgical operative modalities were compared, and tactics of patient management in rehabilitation period was described. The necessity to work out novel methods of complex treatment and rehabilitation for patients with maxillary sinusitis was substantiated.
