[Long-term observation of osteochondrosis dissecans of the hip (author's transl)].

The article presents treatment results in a group of 21 patients (22 joints) suffering from osteochondrosis dissecans of the hip, the minimum observation period being 10 years (average 14 years). By means of surgical treatment, it was possible to achieve healing of the osteochondral fragments in nine out of 16 cases. Such healing was not achieved without surgical treatment; in two-thirds of these cases, an increasing osteoarthrosis of the hip was observed. Among the surgical measures, a combination of adduction osteotomy together with forage, yielded the best success quota (5 healings as a result of 5 operations), whereas adduction osteotomy without forage resulted in healing in 2 cases only out of a total of 16 operated patients.

[Winter sport injuries in childhood (author's transl)].

3374 accidents occurring on the field of sport during the years 1975--1977 accounted for 19% of all accidents dealt with at the Institute of Kinderchirurgie in Graz. 51% of the accidents were caused by the typical winter sports: skiing, tobogganing, ice-skating and ski-jumping with skiing accounting for 75% of the accidents. The fracture localization typical of the different kinds of winter sport is dealt with in detail. The correct size and safety of the equipment were found to be particularly important in the prevention of such accidents in childhood.

[Bone scan of acute hematogenous osteomyelitis in childhood (author's transl)].

A variety of 99m-Tc-phosphate compounds are sensitive and reliable for scintigraphic diagnosis of bone diseases. Therefore bone scan has become a safe method for evaluating patients with suspected acute hematogenous osteomyelitis. So we were able to perform early and adequate treatment without evidence of bony changes in the radiograph. Quantitative regional measurements with a relative uptake ratio was found to be a clinically useful parameter in the follow-up of osteomyelitis.
