[The femoral neck fracture in childhood].

A retrospective study into fracture of the femoral neck in childhood was compiled from 18 hospitals by the Working Group on Paediatric Traumatology, since conditions of that kind were found to be very rare. Thirty-eight fractures were kept under observation, with follow-up checks being made on 29 of them. An account is first given of peculiarities of the proximal femur in childhood. Results are communicated, and therapeutic approaches are compared. A therapeutic proposal has been derived from these findings as well as from literature data.

[Traumatic hip dislocation in childhood].

Twelve children with hip dislocation were recorded from 18 hospitals of the GDR in a collective study conducted on behalf of the Working Group on Paediatric Traumatology. The closed approach was exclusively taken to all reductions, and all of them were performed within the twelve-hour limit. Avascular necrosis of the femoral head or other growth disorders were not observed. Relief periods were conspicuously differentiated, which gave rise to the proposal of unitisation of the therapeutic approach.
