Decapsulation, Decortication

Decapsulation and decortication are surgical procedures whose purpose is to remove the capsule (shell) from an organ.

Decapsulation involves the removal of the fibrous or inflammatory capsule surrounding the organ. For example, in chronic pyelonephritis, a dense fibrous capsule forms around the kidney, which disrupts the blood supply to the kidney and leads to its dysfunction. In this case, decapsulation of the kidney is performed - dissection and removal of the fibrous capsule to restore blood flow.

Decortication is used for inflammatory diseases of the lungs and pleura. This involves removing the thickened inflammatory capsule surrounding the lung. This allows the lung to expand and improve its function.

Thus, decapsulation and decortication are operations aimed at eliminating pathological changes and improving the functioning of organs by removing the abnormal capsule surrounding them.

Decapsulation and decortication are two terms that are often used in medical terminology. Both terms refer to the surgical removal of membranes from an organ or tissue.

Decapsulation is the process of removing the capsule, membrane, or capsule around an organ. For example, kidney decapsulation may be necessary during kidney removal when the capsule surrounding the kidney needs to be removed.

Decortication is the process of removing the inflammatory membrane or capsule confining some chronic abscess or other disease. Decortication may be necessary to treat a chronic abscess or other diseases that require removal of the inflammatory membrane.

Both processes may be necessary to treat various diseases and injuries. However, both processes are complex and require highly qualified surgeons. It is important that the surgeon is experienced and knows how to properly perform decapsulation and decortication.

In general, decapsulation and decortication are important procedures for the treatment of various diseases. They can help reduce inflammation and improve organ function. However, these procedures can be very dangerous and complex and should therefore only be performed by experienced surgeons.

**Decapsulation** (Decapsulatio) and **decortication** (decorticatio) are surgical procedures for removing the membranes from certain internal organs. These operations involve removing the membranes that surround the kidney or the inflammatory membrane that limits the chronic abscess. According to the surgeon, Professor Sergei Kanaev, these operations are very successfully used to treat pathologies in the area of ​​the kidney transplant, ovarian torsion, and pituitary adenomas. In the process of surgical decapsulation, the specialist first cuts the skin
