During the last years the department staff conducts scientific researches aimed at finding ways of surgical correction disfunction organs of the digestive system, lungs. Development of new methods of treatment of liver failure and portal and pulmonary hypertension, which are the most important contribution of the department to the practice of health care.

The morphometric diagnostics of lesions of the heart muscle, liver, colon and small intestine was developed by the staff of the department during the process of dissertation and research work. In this case, objective quantitative morphological criteria are established, which most adequately reflect the patterns of pathological processes in the heart, liver, small and large intestines with different pathological conditions and allow predicting the effects of lesions of these organs.

Scientific work at the department:

1. 2014-2016 - Morphological peculiarities of adaptive-compensatory processes in an organism at resection of different volumes of a liver.

2. 2011-2013 - Morphological regularities of remodeling of cardiovascular and digestive systems during lung and liver resection.

3. 2008-2010 - Structural and functional bases of adaptation of the cardiovascular system under the influence of toxic factors on the body.
