Abstract

Despite the historical antiquity of fat embolism syndrome, its treatment remains a subject of de-bate and one of the significant medical problems, since none of the theories has a key link in its development, by influencing which one can effectively prevent and treat ittreated. In this regard, the aim of the work was to develop the pathogenesis of fat embolism syndrome and determine an effective, pathogenetically based, method of its treatment.

Material and Methods: In the main 85 patients who were performed: determination of the presence of fatty globules at various stages of underwent total hip arthroplasty (TETS), the following treatment; dynamics of lipid metabolism markers; cholesterol level; dynamics of bio-chemical criteria that made it possible to formulate the pathogenesis of fat embolism and determine the key link in its development. In 194 patients, studies were performed to determine the most effective method of prevention and treatment with various drug substrates.

Outcomes: In 79% of cases, during the performance of TETS operations, patients develop fatty hyperglobulemia. Based on the results of the studies performed, a scheme of pathogenesis of the syndrome of fat embolism/hyperglobulemia was formulated, the key link of which is the insufficiency of a hepatocyte (liver failure), acting on which it is possible to successfully stop its development. Medicinal substrates of prevention and treatment were: the traditionally prescribed solution of Essentiale H (Lipostabil); 5% alcohol solution in 5% glucose solution and pathogenetically based hepato protector "Hepasol A".

Conclusion: According to the results of the studies performed, it was established that the key link in the formation of fatty globulemia is the functional insufficiency of the hepatocyte. The use of a 5% solution of ethyl alcohol diluted in a 5% glucose solution is al-most identical in clinical effectiveness to the amino acid hepato protector, but with strict adherence to the technology of its use (calculated dosage of 0.5 g/kg of body weight is administered during the day)! Traditionally prescribed and used solution "Essentiale H" has neither clinical nor laboratory significance.
