Writing well is a valuable skill, but one often lacking among higher and lower level employees. Most people recognize good writing when they see it, but are at a loss to define exactly what it is. I define it as writing that's easy to follow and understand.
Authors have evaluated the results in patients operated for coxe saltans in 1982-1986. The etio-pathogenesis, the clinical features, the therapy, the results of operation are reported and shortly reviewed, based on the data of their 42 patients.
Authors describe the congenital and acquired forms of the rarely occurring hallux varus on the basis of the material of 14 patients, treated in 1951-87 on the Orthopaedic Department of the Semmelweis University Budapest. In 11 cases the deformity was congenital and in the majority bilateral, multiple, together with other foot deformities.
Authors surveyed the material of patients operated for carpal ganglion at the Department of Orthopaedics of Semmelweis University Medical School, in 1952-1986. A brief survey is given of the aetiology, treatment of the disease, of their own material and of the results of surgery of 112 patients. It was found that operation was performed in 5-6% of the cases for recurrences which seems to be an acceptable ratio. Only minimal residual complaints occurred, the patients working capacity was not reduced, they had good wrist function. Patients were satisfied with the operation.

Freiberg's disease of the second metatarsal was found together with the aseptic necrosis of the head of the third metacarpal in a 54-year-old female patient. No similar case was found in the available literature. The deformity of the second metatarsophalangeal joint was corrected with an operation, the alteration of the third metacarpal did not need operative correction.

Over a ten-year period, we identified 457 patients with renal or uterine anomalies. Only 12 of 55 patients with anomalies of mullerian development had an intravenous pyelogram, which revealed an associated renal anomaly in five. Conversely, only two of 21 women with renal anomalies had a gynecologic evaluation; one of them had a bicornuate uterus. Although the association between anomalies of mullerian and wolffian development has been known for some time, the appropriate studies to demonstrate such an association are not routinely done in clinical practice. All female patients with congenital renal anomalies of size, position, or number should have either ultrasonography (in children) or hysterosalpingography (in adults). All patients with congenital uterine or vaginal anomalies should have an intravenous pyelogram.

A short survey of literature is given in the article. 1480 meniscectomies were performed at the Orthopedic Clinic of Semmelweis Medical University in the interval between 1952--75; 29 of these cases were carried out for discoid menisci. Symptoms are introduced and results of operative treatment are evaluated. The author makes a few suggestions based on his own experiences.
