[Surgical treatment of pelvic and femoral bones neoplasms].

The author has reported 42 operations on the pelvic girdle and femoral bones. Two new variants of surgical intervention are suggested: 1) interiliac-pubic-sciatic amputation of a lower extremity, and 2) extended exarticulation of the femur. Des keletization of pelvic bones in both operative procedures renders them more ablastic and radical as compared with routine operations. Interiliac-abdominal resection is felt to be more rational from the rehabilitation viewpoint, moreover it is the author's opinion that resection of the femoral proximal segment should be avoided whenever possible.

[Surgical treatment of tumors of the ribs and clavicles].

The authors report 32 patients with different lesions of ribs and 6 patients with clavicular lesions. Due attention is given to the difficulties in establishing the differential roentgenological diagnosis between reticulosarcoma. Ewing's sarcoma, fibrosarcoma, metastases of other tumors in the rib and fibrous dysplasia. Great diagnostic value of trephine biopsy in establishing the morphological diagnosis is emphasized. To close large defects in the thoracic wall following the resection of some ribs a new variant of autodermal thoracoplasty is suggested.
