[Characteristics of differential diagnosis and tactics of treatment of patients with fractures of the condyles of the femur and tibia].

The author has shown that the traditional conservative and operative methods of treatment having a great number of unsatisfactory results and long period of treatment do not conform to the tasks which, in the ideal variant, must result in liquidation of consequences of the injury. Moreover, one of the main elements of these methods of treatment--continuous plaster immobilization--should be recognized as contraindicated. The program of treatment should include the use of special apparatuses allowing the reposition, firm lateral compression of the fractured fragments without an additional external immobilization, early movements in the injured joint which make optimum conditions for the consolidation of the fracture and simultaneous restoration of the joint function.
