[Use of equipment for external fixation and rehabilitation of patients with hemophilia].

External fixation apparatus (EFA), hing-distraction and compression-distraction, were used in 30 hemophiliacs for the treatment of hemophilic arthrosis, intra-articular and extra-articular fractures, contractures, dislocations, as well as after synovectomy. The treatment was conducted under cryoprecipitate protection, the dose of which was significantly decreased after granulation around the pins was completed. Immediate and late results of the treatment showed its higher effectiveness as compared to other correction methods (gypsum etc). After correction with EFA repeated hemorrhage and trauma were less frequent, and mean annual cryoprecipitate expense decreased five-fold. No severe complications were recorded. EFA enable successful treatment of such diseases of the locomotor system that are unaffected by other therapeutic measures.

[X-ray diagnosis of hemophiliac pseudotumors].

Of 259 hemophiliacs bone pseudotumors were diagnosed in 11 (4.3%); they were localised in the femur (6 cases), calcaneus (4) and in the iliac bone (3). Two cases of combined femoral and calcaneal lesions and 4 cases of bone fracture were observed. As a rule, pseudotumors developed in hemophiliacs with severe disease. An x-ray picture of a pseudotumor depended on its site and was characterized by a large soft tissue tumor shadow, often with calcinosis, and serious destructive changes in bones in the form of round foci of 7 cm in diameter with clear-cut contours. An edge defect of the cortical layer was defined in the diaphysis of the femoral bone (15 cm long). Destructive changes were often accompanied by osteosclerosis and periostitis.
