[Closed complete dislocations of the crus and the result of their treatment].

Based on the analysis of treatment of 22 patients with complete closed crural dislocations, it is emphasized that this trauma is associated with extensive and specific injuries to the articular elements. Concomitant injuries of popliteal vessels were found in 4 (of 22) cases. Timely performed operative restoration of the arterial integrity yielded favourable late results in 2 patients. Two patients admitted in later terms were subjected to a high amputation of the leg. In 15 patients the knee joint instability developed due to ligamental rupture in crural dislocation. Eleven patients from this group were operated upon, plastic reconstruction of ruptured lateral and crucial ligaments and the removal of injured meniscuses being accomplished in them. Persistant good and satisfactory functional results were gained in 10 cases. Only one poor issue was noted.
