Comparative Study[Comparative evaluation of endoscopic hemostatic methods in gastroduodenal ulcer hemorrhage].
An experience with using various methods of endoscopic hemostasis for bleeding gastroduodenal ulcers is presented. The efficiency of different methods of arresting the bleedings depending on localization of the ulcer, place of the bleeding vessel and activity of the hemorrhage is discusses. The frequency of hemorrhages was shown to depend of the phase of the ulcer disease. A conclusion is made about high efficiency of using the combined endoscopic hemostasis as compared with using each of the methods of arresting the hemorrhage separately.

[The reasons for leaving foreign bodies in the abdominal cavity and the prevention of this complication].
An investigation performed in 38 surgical and obstetrics-gynecology departments has established that during 20 years foreign bodies were forgotten in the abdominal cavity of 46 patients which makes up 0.03% of all laparotomies. In 30 patients they were forgotten in emergency operations and in 16 patients in elective operations. Among the victims there were 31 women. ⋯ The foreign bodies stayed in the abdominal cavity during the period from 6 hours till 15 years and in 26.1% of the patients they resulted in lethal outcomes. The main causes of accidental leaving the foreign bodies in the abdominal cavity during operative interventions are analyzed in detail. Means of prevention of such neglect of surgeons are proposed.
