[Early results in the treatment of Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease using intra-articular injections of aqueous propolis extract].

Authors presented results in conservative treatment of 54 cases of hip joint with aseptic necrosis of thigh bone. In 22 hips, excluding the typical conservative treatment, EEP injections were given. However, in the remaining 32, different forms of relieve were used. The obtained results in the first group (A) confirm the purpose of enrichment in conservative treatment by adapting intra- articular injections of EEP especially in advanced stages of necrosis (III-IV period of illness) and also in those whose parents did not express their consent on surgery in the early stage of the illness.

The ability of ethanolic extract of propolis (EEP) to protect mice against gamma irradiation.

Ethanolic extract of propolis (EEP) was tested as a protective agent against gamma irradiation in mice. The mice were exposed to 6 Gy gamma irradiation from a 60Co source, and were treated intraperitoneally with EEP, administered before and after their irradiation. While the non-treated mice expired within 12 weeks, the mice that received a series of EEP treatments survived the irradiation, and their leucocyte count as well as their spleens' plaque-forming activity returned to normal. It is suggested that an antioxidant and a free radical scavenger in the EEP are responsible for the radiation protective effect of the extract of this natural product.
