Compartment syndromes of the lower arm and lower leg are quite well known by now and have been often described in the literature. Those of the upper arm and thigh are rarer and those after pure closed lesion of the soft parts of the thigh are the subject of only sporadic reports in the literature. A recently observed case of this kind prompted the present case report and review of the literature.
The dynamic slide osteosynthesis of Pohl - a single acting method - is compared to other methods of operations. 103 patients with intertrochanteric fractures of the femur were treated by "Pohlsche Laschenschraube". The average age of patients was 76.7 years. The average stay in our hospital lasted 43 days. 16.5% of the patients died. 27 patients were examined two years after operation. The further study is based on clinical documents.
Degenerative changes in the shoulder joint affect the capsule much more frequently than might be expected and are not seen on a plain radiograph. Arthrography of the shoulder has become of increasing significance in view of modern surgical management. Arthrography is used particularly to demonstrate a tear of the rotator cuff (especially the supra spinatus and infra spinatus). It also shows other important abnormalities which cause pain on movement, such as adhesions, tight capsule and the formation of septa. The indications, technique and necessary records, as well as typical pathological findings, are demonstrated in forty shoulder arthrograms. Hemuro-scapular peri-arthritis is a collective term for complex, primarily degenerative or posttraumatic, changes including peri-articular calcification. Demonstration of calcification alone does not justify the radiological diagnosis of humeroscapular peri-arthritis.
