Surgical treatment of biliary pathology in patients: 13 years of experience
Biliary pathology represents today one of the most common indication for surgery in abdominalnj surgery. Calculosis gallbladder is a serious pathological condition, that their frequency, severity and possible complications constitute a significant percentage of medical emergencies. Septic complications are the most important factor of morbidity and mortality in biliary surgery. In relation to the gender structure of M: F=160: 519 1 3.2 23.6%: 76.4% is female domination. The highest incidence of biliary diseases in this interval is 91 (13.4%) in 2006, and 75 (11.0%) of 2010 average incidence of 52 patients per year. The lowest incidence was 2002 g 6 (0.9%) patients. The youngest patient was females aged 12 years. The oldest patient who underwent surgery were female, with a 82 yr. The range is 82-12=70g. The average age of the patients was 51 years, with dominant females 76.4%. Cholecystitis chronice is present in 423 (62.3%), cholecystitis acuta 251 (37%). Cholelythiasa 666 98%. Acalculosa 13 (1.91%). Calculosis gallbladder was present in 666 (98.1%) cases. OP: Solitary holelithiasis, 149 (22.4%), multiple holelithiasis 517 (77.6%). The absence of cholelithiasis in biliary diseases was verified in 13 (1.91%) patients. Holecistit empyema was verified in 8 (1.18%) cases. The structure of the surgical findings shows that gallbladder represents the dominant place of infectious processes in the acute pathology of extrahepatic bile ducts. 436 (64.2%). Hydrops 47 (10.8%). Empyema 102 (23.4%). Acute complications related to the spread of infection from the gallbladder put the main biliary tree and free abdominal cavity were registered in 2 (0.46%). Abscessus subhepatis 11 (2.52%). Choledocholythiasis 6 (1.38%). Cholangitis ac 17 (3.9%). Neo vesicae felleae 7 (1.03%). From that polypus vesicae felleae 2 (0.4%), ca vesicae felleae 4 (0.59%).

Impact of economic change on nutrition quality in preschool institutions in Macva district
Introduction: Health food safety is an absolute priority, whether it is a physical-chemical and microbiological safety. This applies particularly to vulnerable population groups. Particularly vulnerable population group is pre-school children. In this age, in addition to health security, as an important segment of the nutritional value of food. Nutritional value represents the energy value of meals, as well as a total in a certain amount (100g), as it looks at the energy density of meals. A reliable indicator of nutritional value, in addition to the mere satisfaction of energy needs, the amount and concentration ratio of macronutrients. This paper deals with the energy value of daily meals in preschools in Macva administrative district. The quality of the meal depends on several factors, such as the selection of food, preparation methods, expertise, personnel to create menus. This work focused on the economic situation in the whole society, as a factor affecting the quality of daily meals in preschools in Macva administrative district. Aim: To investigate the existence of statistically significant differences in the quality of daily meals in 2010, 2011 and 2012. Materials and methods: During the period under review were collected and analyzed data on the quality of the food at nine preschools in Macva administrative district. Data on the total caloric value, energy value in 100 grams, as well as data on the proportion of macronutrients carbohydrates, fats and proteins are analized and compared. The comparison of the results with the current regulations in the Republic of Serbia, and testing the statistical significance of the energy value variation and content of macronutrients in the observed poreioda. Results and Conclusion: The results showed that the total energy value does not satisfy 75% of daily needs, and that there is a significant reduction in the share of protein and increase in the proportion of carbohydrates. Test results indicate that due to the impact of the deterioration of the economic situation decreased quality of daily meals. Reducing the quality is reflected in statistically significant decrease in the share of proteins.

Significance of echotomography in the diagnostic algorithm for acute pyelonephritis and glomerulonephritis
Introduction: Dental caries is the most common oral disease in all age groups. Being more and more frequent in preschool and school-age children, it has become one of the most important problems in oral pathology. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of dental caries in schoolchildren aged 12 and 15 years in the northern part of Kosovo and Metohija, as well as to inform them about the importance of oral health. Materials and Methods: The study included 626 schoolchildren of both sexes from five schools from the municipalities of Kosovska Mitrovica, Zvečan and Leposavić. Klein-Palmer DMFT system (D-Decayed, M-Missing, F-filled) was used to estimate the prevalence of dental caries the following indices were also used: Person Caries Index, Teeth Caries Index, Average Caries Index and DMFT structure. All the selected children were examined using standard dental diagnostic agents. Tooth surfaces were examined dry under artificial lighting. Results: The average value of DMFT index for children aged 12 and 15 years was 4.2. On average, 92.3% of the examined children had caries. The mean value of caries index was 15.11%.Conclusion: After these new epidemiological studies, it can be concluded that the state of children's oral health, considering the high levels of untreated caries and all other features of DMFT index, is not satisfactory. This situation points to the necessity of applying modern preventive and prophylactic measures to preserve and improve the population oral health.

Functional results of surgical treatment of deltoid ligament rupture as components of fracture of the lateral malleolus
Injury of the deltoid ligament as a component of the lateral malleolus fractures is caused by the fact rotational forces during the support. The aim of this research is to examine the functional results of the patient who had undergone suture of the deltoid ligament and osteosynthesis of fracture of the lateral malleolus. In a retrospective study the analysis included a series of 45 patients.The diagnosis of rupture of the deltoid ligament is made based on physical findings islands and tenderness in the region of the deltoid ligament and roentgenographic confirmation width of the medial joint space > 4 mm. There is a high degree of correlation with the 25 (55.55%) patients between excellent functional outcomes of treatment calculated by Gregory[11] score and great roentgenographic findings by Konrath score[12]. The total clinical scores of subjective and objective clinical assessment by Gregory of a sample of patients, characterized by an excellent, even with the 40 (88.89%) patients. In the literature there is no agreement on the method of treatment of the deltoid ligament rupture associated with fractures of the lateral malleolus. Based on theoretical considerations, a number of authors advocate surgical treatment discontinued deltoid ligament. In our series, using suture of the deltoid ligament and osteosynthesis of the lateral malleolus, the best results are obtained with the PAB fracture, lower percentages of excellent results is with the SER fractures. The worst result was obtained with the PER type fracture. Anatomical and functional integrity of all parts of the talocrural joint that allows harmony of movement and stability is achieved with osteosynthesis of lateral malleolus and suture of the deltoid ligament.

Cardiovascular comorbidities in hospitalized psychiatric patients with diagnoses of schizophrenic and affective disorders
A cardiovascular comorbidity (CVC) in psychiatric patients represents a simultaneous occurrence of a cardiovascular and a mental illness in the same patient regardless of the order of occurrence or of the cause and effect relationship that conjoins them. The objective was to determine the frequency and sort of the CVC in previously hospitalized patients with diagnoses of schizophrenic and affective disorders along with the differences in distribution of said disorders between the two groups of patients. Design-wise this is a retrospective study of intersections. It is based on the analytics of medical data (the history of disease along with the internal medicine consultant reviews) of the hospitalized patients in the Clinic for psychiatric disorders “Dr. Laza Lazarević” in Belgrade during the period between November 2014 and February 2015. Patients who were involved were older than 18 and they had diagnoses of schizophrenic disorders (F20-F29) and affective disorders (F30-F39), according to diagnostic criteria in the International classification of diseases 10 (ICD-10). CVC which were previously diagnosed or registered during the examination we separated into the following groups according to ICD-10: hypertension (HTA) I10, cardiac arrhythmia (CA) I47-I49, chronic cardiomyopathy (CMP) I42-I43 and ischemic heart disease (IHD) 120-125. The two groups of patients were analyzed according with socio-demographic characteristics (gender and age range) and CVC diagnosed according to MKB-10 classification. CVC were registered in 66% of the patients diagnosed with schizophrenia and 34% of the patients with affective disorders. Hypertension was most common in both groups of patients following with cardiac arrhythmia. Cardiac arrhythmias were statistically significantly more common in patients diagnosed with schizophrenic disorders (p<0.001) compared to patients with affective disorders. The frequency of hypertension, ischemic heart disease and chronic cardiomyopathy rises with age in both groups of patients. The results of this research confirm a high degree of CVC in hospitalized patients with diagnoses of schizophrenic and affective disorders (especially cardiac arrhythmia and hypertension). A multidisciplinary team is the key for diagnosing and monitoring patients with schizophrenic and affective diseases in both primary and secondary preventions.

SAPHO syndrome the therapeutical challenge
Introduction: Sapho syndorm is a syndrom characterizing with osteoarticular end dermatologic symptoms. Acronym „SAPHO“ means: S-Sinovitis, A-Acne, H-Hyperostosis, O-Osteytis. SAPHO syndrom has a 50 different names in existing literature. For now, etiology remains unclear, but it belongs to group of seronegative spondylarthropathies. Therapy of SAPHO includes NSAIL, glucocorticosteroids, disease modifying anthireumatic drugs (DMARD), antibiotics, bifosfonatos, and anti TNF - alfa drugs with variable success. Case outline: Pacent P.Z, 47 age, female, comes in the hospital, because of pain in anterior chest, with propagation in right arm, end morning stiffness in sacral part, which passes short after. Also, with recidivant pustules on the palms, bilaterally, which precedes itch. Bone scintigraphy was performed: There is a clear increasing binding of radiopharmacs in projection of strenoclavicular joint, and slightly in both shoulders and both knees. HP: Pustulosis palmoplantaris. We introduced in therapy azithromycin in the dose of 500 mg, two times weekly, for 16 weeks. Patient, one year after, is without relapses of arthritis and skin lesions. Conclusion: This report has goal, to get more knowledge about this rare disease, and to be easier for recognition. Also we want to introduce other physicians, of varying specialities, like orthopaedics, and other surguries, with this disease, not only rheuamatologists, dermatologists, and pediatrics.

Using cone beam computed thomography in planning the extraction of impacted third molars
The panoramic radiography is the most used diagnostic imaging method in planning impacted lower third molar extractions. However, often panoramic radiography does not provide enough information in treatment planning for performing safely surgical extraction of impacted third molars. CBCT (Cone beam computed tomography) provides more precise information in diagnostic analysis especially for planning surgical procedures where complications can be expected due to close relationship between mandibular canal and lower impacted third molars. The aim of this study is comparative analysis of panoramic radiography and CBCT in evaluating the topographic relationship between mandibular canal and impacted third molars. The study included 50 patients with close relationship between mandibular canal and impacted third molars detected using panoramic radiography. After panoramic radiography analysis CBCT was performed in order to diagnose, plan and prevent complications during the surgical tooth extraction. CBCT examination considered comparative analysis with panoramic radiography, marking, volume rendering and assessment of mandibular canal in buccolingual direction. Out of total patients where suprimposition of mandibular canal and impacted third molar on panoramic radiography was detected, in 32 patients mandibular chanal was localised on lingual side. Mandibular canal was positioned at bucal side in 18 of 50 patients. Results of this research indicate that panoramic radiography can be useful in everyday practice for diagnosis, planning and preparing lower third molar extractions, but in cases where close relationship between mandibular canal and lower third molars is detected CBCT is recommended as more precise radiographic imaging method in order to prevent complications.
