Abstract

Purpose: analyze the surgical activity of treating brain tumors in the regional clinical center of neurosurgery and neurology (RCCNN) of the city of Uzhhorod. Materials and methods. Materials: medical histories of patients who were operated on at the RCCNN from 2014 to 2024. Methods: bibliosmantic, structural and logical analysis, statistical method of data processing. Results. From 2014 to August 2024, the largest number of patients were operated on from Transcarpathia, with a large gap in second place in terms of the number of operated patients – Lviv region. After analyzing the data of operated patients, we see that starting from 2022, the number of patients from the eastern regions of Ukraine has increased. Conclusions. Taking into account the number of operated cases of brain tumors in the OKCNN from the regions of Ukraine, it can be stated that brain tumors are indeed an extremely urgent problem today, which is actively being solved in the OKCNN of Uzhgorod, as evidenced by the increase in the number of operated patients in 1.7 in 2023 (306 patients) compared to 2014 (179 patients).
