[Abdominal injuries in polytraumatised patients].

Authors have observed in 1978-1984 in 87 of 214 polytrauma cases injuries of the abdominal organs. The data concerning children in whom the high ratio of injuries of the abdominal organs and the low mortality are conspicuous are shown separately. The necessity of urgent diagnosis to which especially the abdominal irrigation has given great help is stressed. After a review of the literature and a control of their own material the problem is considered as actual, as in polytraumas the abdominal injuries are frequent, the valuation of the abdomen in the patient, generally in shock or unconscious is problematic, the many times simultaneous therapy of the abdominal and joined injuries is difficult, the mortality high.

Abdominal Injuries

[Incidence of fractures of the proximal femur and the distal end of the forearm (results of a Vas County survey compared to international data)].

Authors analysing the one year material of injured in one county, state the age and sex specific incidence in the two types of fractures. Compared with other European data they found difference in male/female distribution: the values concerning women are substantially lower in the county Vas, those of men are on the other side equal. To clear the difference and the tendency further examinations are thought to be necessary, especially regarding the increasing importance of femoral fractures of the hip region in public health and national economy.

[Talus neck fractures associated to subtalar dislocations (author's transl)].

The survey literary data on the mechanism, symptoms and treatment of vertical talus neck fractures associated to subtalar dislocations, they present five cases in their practice. Reducement of the fracture dislocation, fixation by Kirschner wire was accomplished and a plaster cast was applied, for twelve weeks as an average. Avascular necrosis of the bone did not occur. The authors lay emphasis on the importance of early careful reducement and immobilization.

Adult

[Our experiences with the Kiel type heterolog conserved bone graft (author's transl)].

The authors survey data in the medical literature on Kiel type heterolog conserved bones and report their own experiences. Forty-nine cases altogether, the authors grafted bone manufactured by the Braun firm, in seven patients; a Kiel type bone conserved by the method of the authors in forty-two patients; The grafts were used mostly in patients with solitaer bone cysts, in a smaller number in patients with bone cavities following impression fractures, pseudarthrosis and arthrodesis. Their results were excellent, minor complications occured in only four cases. Finally some up-to-date problems of bone grafting, regeneration are discussed in this paper.

[Experimental repair of tendons with cutis grafts. Light and polarization microscopic study (author's transl)].

Autologous and homologous cutis grafts have been used for the repair of experimental defect of the tendon of the m. ext. carpi ulnaris in adult dogs. Newly formed tendon tissue was found on the frame of the cutis graft about 8 weeks after the implantation. The structure of the newly formed tendon was investigated by light and polarization microscopy up to 8 weeks postoperatively.

Development of collagenous fibres in autologous and preserved homologous tendon grafts.

Collagen synthesis has been studied in preserved autologous and homologous tendon grafts, applied in dogs. The stages of collagen morphogenesis observed in the synthetizing fibroblasts appearing in the decomposing original structure of the transplants as well as in the extracellular ground substance are described. The results suggest that autologous tendon grafts and homologous ones preserved by irradiation, stored in cold physiological saline and beta-propiolactone, are rebuilt within eight weeks; meanwhile the original collagenous fibre structure is decomposed. When other preserving procedures such as deep-freezing or gamma irradiation are applied recomposition of the graft is retarded or fails to occur; the result is a cicatrizing adhesion.
