[Prediction of the outcome of craniocerebral injuries in the acute period].
Unified clinical findings in 302 patients were analysed to prognosticate the outcomes of severe craniocerebral trauma in the acute phase. The patients condition in the acute stage was evaluated in points according to four types of outcome: fatal, with coarse and moderate neurological disorders, and with a satisfactory compensation of the condition. In a condition rated 20-30 points the probability of a favourable or a fatal outcome was equal. In a condition rated less than 20 points the probability of a fatal outcome increases, in one-rated above 30 points the probability of a favourable outcome grew.

[Principles for making the diagnosis of craniocerebral injury].
The structure of the diagnosis of craniocerebral trauma in the acute period was elaborated in conformity with its common clinical classification. The authors substantiate the necessity for supplementing the general nosological characteristics of the injuries to the skull and brain with a specification of all anatomical and principal functional components of the trauma, which are listed in order of their importance for the therapeutic policy and the outcomes.

[Anterior decompression of the spinal cord at the level of the thoracic vertebrae].
Anterior compression of the spinal cord at the level of the thoracic vertebrae cannot be corrected adequately through a posterior approach (laminectomy). This widely encountered form of spinal cord compression calls for a differentiated use of the anterolateral or lateral approach to the vertebral canal, i.e. combination of osteotransversectomy with hemilaminectomy. A lateral access to the vertebral canal is indicated in most cases.
