[Results of the surgical treatment of ankle joint fractures].

Surgical treatment was applied to 74 cases of ankle joint fractures at the author's hospital, between 1979 and 1984. Follow-up checks were made on 59 patients, within one to seven years from surgery. Luxation fractures accounted for 39 per cent. The rates of wound edge necrosis and bone infection were three per cent each. Results were evaluated by stringent and precisely defined criteria. The worst findings, according to expectation, were recorded from the cases of luxation fractures. Sixty-four per cent of all results were rated good to very good, and 17 per cent were rated poor. The patients' individual assessment was much better, since only three per cent felt that results were inadequate.

[Early diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases in younger patients].

In 114 persons with an average age of 30 years who were found out during an X-ray examination on account of pathological findings of the heart clinical examinations were carried out and the findings were compared with those of a control group of the same age which had normal fluorographic findings. Among the patients with radiologically provable enlargement of the heart were 29% of active sportsmen who in the majority of cases had no other findings. Moreover, the enlargement of the heart correlated with overweight, increased values of blood pressure, vitia cordis and with subjective heart complaints. The effectivity of the primary screening is confirmed by the establishment that 66% of patients free of symptoms could be established.
