[Early results with Zespol osteosyntheses of the leg].

First experiences with the Polish osteosynthesis method "ZESPOL" are reported. Considering 28 osteosyntheses this method proved a success under selected indications. For the treatment of tibial shaft fractures the assembling in the sense of a monofixing agent is efficient. Besides a high but not rigid stability, minimum impairment, a limited but multilateral applicable apparatus and simple operating technique the high variability in consequense of external, subcutaneous and paraosseous placement possibility has to be mentioned. The early results of patients treated from february 1987 to august 1988 are good.

[Clinical diagnosis of fresh injuries of the knee joint].

Clinical diagnosis has to registrate fresh injuries. These have to undergo immediate operation or further instrumental or radiological procedures respectively. This may be effected in almost all cases by systematic evaluation of informations on the anamnesis and general or special clinical diagnosis. Main symptom of the frequent, complete tear of the anterior cruciate ligament is the Lachman-test. In addition to the clinical tests for instability out-of-order-proprioception may refer valuably to limited ligamentons tears. Results of early clinical diagnosis should be improved by close hospital and out-patient department cooperation and both collective workshops and interpretation of results as well.

[Efficacy of interlocking nailing in fractures of the leg].

Closed and Grade-I open multi-fragment, comminuted, and segmental fractures of the femoral and tibial shafts are well established indications for surgical stabilisation, using interlocking nailing. Eighty-two fractures of those categories in 78 patients were handled by the authors, between 1976 and 1987. High efficiency of the approach has been confirmed by early functional treatment, soon consolidation of fragments, within half a year, less complications as compared to other techniques as well as good functional end results which had been recorded in follow-up checks from 88 per cent of the patients involved (n = 66).

[Advantages and problems in acute management of injuries of the capsular ligament system of the knee joint].

Between 1983 and 1985, immediate surgical treatment was received by 34 of 119 patients (28.5 per cent) admitted for acute injuries to capsular ligaments of the knee joint. Good results were achieved in 90 per cent of these cases. Immediate suspicion of acute capsular ligament injury on admission to the outpatient section or casualty ward, nodelay definite diagnosis, surgical action in acute condition as well as subtle and anatomically adequate restoration of all injured structures are the major conditions that must be satisfied for good success of this approved principle. Intensive physiotherapeutic after-care must be another integral component of a clearly defined therapeutic concept. Causes for delays in diagnosis and therapy are analysed, and conclusions are drawn.

[Primary and secondary augmentation reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament with the gracilis tendon].

In both immediate and secondary surgical treatment for teared anterior cruciate ligament an additional augmentation procedure protecting the reinserted original ligament structures seems to be consequent. Main indications for augmentation are the gravity of destruction, an intermediate type of rupture, fibre displacement and atrophy. Respecting the quite good long term results of 40 isolated Lindemann-procedures (1975-1982) 6 to 14 years after treatment, and the results of 43 primary and 77 secondary augmentation procedures performed in a 4 year's period (1984-1988) the Lindemann dynamic transfer technique can be recommended for replacement and augmentation as well.
