[Treatment of chronic lumbosacral pain by transcutaneous electrical stimulation in laminectomized patients: preliminary results (author's transl)].

The authors have tried transcutaneous electrical stimulation for the treatment of chronic lumbosacral pain in 27 patients already treated by laminectomy without benefit. Six patients experienced a 55% mean reduction of pain; another six had a 35% reduction; and the remaining 15 a 16% reduction of pain severity. From these results and a review of published data the authors conclude that the method is of limited value in alleviating chronic lumbosacral pain in laminectomized patients.

[Intrafascicular neurolysis in carpal tunnel syndrome recurrences].

The authors view intrafascicular neurolysis of the median nerve as the only therapeutic solution for recurrencies of the carpal canal syndrome. The procedure should be carried out as early as as possible in order to obtain not only the control of pain but also the restoration of good trophic conditions of the tenar eminence.

[Considerations on the treatment of fractures of the proximal end of the tibia (author's transl)].

The authors discuss the treatment of fractures of the proximal end of the tibia with special attention to the relative merits and limitations of nonsurgical versus surgical procedures. In this respect the clinical material accumulated at the Istituto Ortopedico G. Pini of Milan affords a fruitful comparison of the two therapeutic approaches. More precisely, while the differences are not so dramatic as to favor one approach over the other in all cases, it appears evident that surgical aggression by suitable methods and in properly selected cases affords markedly shorter periods of immobilization and more rapid functional recovery.

[Carpal tunnel syndrome: the causes of recurrence].

The authors discuss the possible causes of recurrency in patients with the carpal canal syndrome treated surgically by splitting of the transverse carpal ligament. With reference to possible technical errors in the surgical procedure, they explain the correct way to obviate not only the extrinsic compression of the nerve but also the intrinsic pressure exerted upon the axons.

[Lesions of the extensor apparatus of the distal phalanx of fingers in children (author's transl)].

The authors discuss their experience in the treatment of lesions of the extensor apparatus of the distal phalanx of fingers in children. The discussion touches upon diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of the problem and includes a detailed description of the surgical procedure adopted by the authors, which proves adequate to obviate the well-known morphological and functional alterations often following such lesions.
