Experiences with total hip replacement arthroplasty ad modum ring.

The results of total replacement of the hip joint ad modum Ring are presented. The review includes 63 hips (from among the total number of cases operated by the various methods) followed up for periods ranging from 6 months to 5 years. The assessment has shown excellent results in 33.3 per cent, good results in 50.8 per cent, fair in 9.5 per cent and poor results in 6.4 per cent. Advantages and disadvantages of the method are discussed.

[Modified Küntscher's nail for the proximal femur fixation after corrective osteotomies in children (author's transl)].

The authors describe the development in the design of the modified Küntscher's nail with two fins on its upper part, assigned for the fixation of proximal femur after corrective osteotomies in children. Detailed explanation about the nails construction and its biomechanical characteristics are presented. The fixation of the nail in the proximal and distal femoral part, as well as on the site of osteotomy is particularly analyzed. On the base 423 operated cases, where the modified Küntscher's nail was applied, the authors conclusion is that the nail is very suitable for the correction of proximal femur deformities in children.
