Acetabular protrusion and the Monk Duopleet prosthesis in subcapital femoral neck fractures.
A total of 166 patients with acute, displaced subcapital fractures of the femoral neck were treated over a 5-year period with the Monk Duopleet bi-articular prosthesis. The average age at operation was 77.8 years. 81 patients were available for review at an average of 37.1 months after surgery. Radiographic evidence of acetabular protrusion was found in 3 patients (3.7 per cent). This incidence of protrusion is considerably lower than that normally reported for one-piece prostheses such as the Austin Moore or Thompson. The causes of acetabular protrusion are discussed.

Monthly screening in the first six months of life for congenital hip dislocation.
The experience is reported of a five-year study of monthly assessment for congenital dislocation of the hip in suspected cases. The importance of persisting instability and of the "tightening adductor phenomenon" is stressed. The results indicate that monthly follow-up for six months greatly diminishes the incidence of late-diagnosed CDH.

Anterior cruciate ligament repair for rotatory instability: the Lindemann dynamic muscle-transfer procedure.
The Lindemann operation, originally performed in 1950 as a reconstructive procedure for the anterior cruciate ligament, was performed in the knees of eight patients suffering from rotatory instability. Although the instability persisted, as shown by roentgenographic and clinical examination, treatment with the tendon transfer appears to have provided dynamic stabilization. Seven of the eight patients so treated were subjectively improved, and they returned to sports or activities which they had not been able to perform prior to surgery.
