Crystallization Characteristics of Biological Fluids of Patients with Postoperative Alveococcosis

The aim of the investigation was to analyze the changes of crystallogenic and initiating activity of biofluids of patients with alveococcosis to estimate the metabolism normalization level intraoperatively and in a long-term postoperative period.

Materials and Methods. Saliva and urinary samples of 42 patients treated for alveococcosis were studied. The diagnosis was verified by instrumental (ultrasound, computed and/or magnetic resonance tomography) and laboratory (latex particle agglutination, ELISA) tests. All the patients were operated: 30 of them underwent radical surgeries, the rest — palliative operations. Biofluid sampling was performed on admission and before discharge from hospital. The patients were followed up for a year and more, saliva and urinary sampling was repeated 2 weeks after the operation, as well as 1 and 3 months after the surgery. All substrate samples were studied according to teziocrystalloscopy technique.

Results. The analysis of the parameters of crystallogenic and initiating properties of saliva and urine showed the patients after radical surgery to have eventual metabolism normalization in a long-term postoperative period, while palliative operations were found to provide its temporal partial optimization, metabolic effect being neutralized 3 months after the operation.
