The presented recommendations unify the opinions of the conciliatory commission members on the most debatable problems of diagnostics and treatment of differentiated cancer of the thyroid gland. The recommendations elucidate the problems of diagnostics, including ultrasonic diagnostics, fine needle puncture biopsy, scintigraphy of the thyroid gland. The approaches to the volume of surgery on the thyroid and lymph nodes of the neck, the parameters of staging the tumor process are shown. Indications for radio-iodotherapy, suppressive hormonotherapy are emphasized. The work has determined the strategy of postoperative management of the patients.

As the literature data give arguments both pro and contra wide use of maximal androgenic block (MAB) in the treatment of prostatic cancer, the authors studied MAB in 200 patients. They came to the conclusion that MAB can be applied in patients with symptoms of disseminated prostatic cancer as neoadjuvant therapy before prostatectomy and as neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapy in planning radiotherapy.

The results of treatment of 850 patients with urinary bladder cancer (UBC) are analysed. Precise staging of the tumor should be made in the following order: suprapubic ultrasonic investigation (USI), cystoscopy and microcystoscopy, transrectal, transurethral USI. Indications for different treatments are outlined: typical and atypical papillary fibroepithelioma, papillary cancer in stage T1 should be managed with TUR after previous electrocoagulation; cancer in stage T2-3--with urinary bladder resection and uni- or bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy; total papillomatosis, multiple lesions in stage T3, in cases of recurrent cancer--with cystectomy including one-stage or multistage replacement of the urinary bladder by intestinal transplant. The only physiologically sound method of treating patients after cystectomy with ureterocutaneostomy and ureterocolostomy is creation of intraperitoneal intestinal urinary bladder with reestablishment of transurethral urination. Arguments against creation of artificial urinary bladder made of detubularized segments consist in the absence of advantages.
