Aim: то assess the effectiveness of the combined method for the correction of early and long-existing hypertrophic scars and keloids by intrascar injection of "Longidaza ME" medication and phonophoresis. Material and methods. A combined method of correction of hypertrophic scars and keloids, comprising the introduction of the "Longidaza ME" by intrascar injection and using phonophoresis. Results. Evaluation of the results was determined based on indicators of dermatology quality of life index. When comparing long-term results positive result was noted in 90% of cases. Conclusion. The study confirmed the effectiveness of the combined method in preventing reactive growth of connective tissue and ability to cause regression of fibrosis, i.e. to correct a complex autoregulatory reactions of connective tissue, which is clinically expressed in resorption and deposition of scar.

Objective: the comparative research of phytocomplex phonophoresis rehabilitation efficiency of patients with knee joint osteoarthrosis. Material and Methods, the study included 100 patients with knee joint osteoarthrosis; the effectiveness evaluation was made in terms of American Rheumatologic Association (ARA), the data of visual-analogue scale (VAS) and goniometry, indexes WOMAC, Lekena and the index of activity SIA, criteria of life quality questionnaire HAQ. Results. The complex use of phyto- and ultrasonic therapy in conjunction with an medicamentous treatment of patients have a more pronounced positive effect on pain (by 26-28%), function of the knee joint (by 22-26%) and the quality of life (by 24%) compared to treatment with medicamentous only treatment or combined using ultrasonic and medicamentous therapy. Conclusion. The new method of phytocomplex phonophoresis leads to the expressed regress of clinical symptomatology at patients with knee joint osteoarthrosis, improves locomotor function of knee joints and quality of life.
