Medvedev Vascular Suture

Vadim Medvedev is a surgeon and emeritus professor of medicine, born in the capital in 1885 into a hereditary family of a doctor. Yuri was actively interested in medicine as a teenager, graduated from a surgical hospital in St. Petersburg, where he soon began to engage in scientific healing. In the early 50s, Medvedev defended his PhD thesis in gastroenterology, and a few years later he was awarded the degree of Doctor of Medical Sciences. Later he was awarded the title of professor. Vadim received extensive practice in the activities of an academician, working as a surgeon at the Clinical Hospital of the 31st Hospital. For the successful solution of medical problems, the doctor was twice awarded the Stalin Prize. But during the Great Patriotic War, Vadim became the head of the department of military medicine at the Institute. Sergei Kirov in Samara. During the occupation of the city, the Germans organized a full-fledged hospital in the military hospital. Thanks to the actions of doctors, the lives of about seven thousand people were saved. During the post-war years, Medvedev continued to practice as a surgeon, devoting much time to scientific research. At the age of 61, Vadim Aleksandrovich became the oldest professor in Moscow, but he made his most important discovery in his scientific career a year earlier, at the age of 60. This fact happened completely by chance. The doctor was at the Bakulev clinic with a seriously ill patient, who had recently undergone a major operation. The man had a dissected aneurysm, which threatened him with complete shutdown of blood clots in the vessels of the brain. After the patient received emergency care, his condition returned to normal. Then Medvedev decided to check the condition of the vessels and arteries of the head in the remaining hospitalized patients who were not directly operated on. The doctor paid attention to the condition of the heart and discovered a peculiar side effect from the blood transfusion, in which accumulations of blood formed inside the vessels. One of the patients described above, Nikolai Sergeevich Davydov, died from this pathology 12 years later. Medvedev re-examined the patient and found anatomical changes in his spine, as a result of which the patient developed osteochondrosis. Knowing about hemorrhages due to damage to the vertebral arteries, Vadim Aleksandrovich suggested that the cause of the pathology was Nikolai’s sedentary lifestyle. Unfortunately, medical assumptions were confirmed - lying in bed worsened the patient’s condition due to impaired blood supply to the tissues. Based on the results of diagnostic studies, Medvedev developed a technique for surgical closure of defective vessels, which he himself previously called “vascular extravasation.” Since then, Yu. A. Medvedev’s vascular suture has been widely used - the method intervention that allows you to restore the integrity of the vessel through a protracted connection of the vessels. To diagnose arterial damage and find the cause of damage, angiography, vascular Doppler ultrasound, PET-CT, as well as X-rays and other methods are used. Coagulation of diseased veins and blood clots is performed by endoscopic manipulation - through a puncture. For more than 40 years, Yu. Medvedev’s technology for performing vascular sutures has been a huge success, since diagnosis was made in a timely manner, and the result was saving the lives of patients.
