[Indicators of humoral immunity in the surgical treatment of toxic goiter].

Changes in the content of gammaglobulins, immunoglobulins of all classes, and circulating immune complexes were revealed in 70 patients with toxic goiter given thyrostatic therapy, which may be evidence of disturbed humoral immunity. These disorders were most manifest in unstable compensation of toxicosis and in patients with ophthalmopathy. In patients with developed postoperative toxic reactions no specific changes in the immune status were detected in the preoperative period and no regularities allowing the prognostication of the development of a toxic reaction were revealed. Essential changes in humoral immunity values did not occur on the eighth postoperative day.

[Relationship of postoperative complications to the surgical approach in treating cancer of the proximal portion of the stomach].

The authors have analyzed the interrelationship between postoperative complications and surgical approach in the treatment of carcinoma of the proximal portion of the stomach. The radical operations were carried out upon 140 patients; in 93 of them the transperitoneal approach was applied and in 47-the transpleural one. It has been found that in the transpleural approach the insufficiency of anastomosis sutures and postoperative pancreatitis occur much more seldom, and bronchopulmonary complications rate the first. Such complications are not infrequent after the transperitoneal approach either. The disorders of bronchial permeability constitute the main cause in the occurrence of these complications.
