[Peri-articular ossifications].
Restriction of motion of the joints due to peri-articular ossifications constitute a major problem in the rehabilitation of patients with transverse spinal cord lesion. The therapeutic possibilities as well as the preventive measurements are described and illustrated with a few case reports.

[Mesotherapy in abarticular rheumatism].
Mesotherapy is a method of treatment in which subcutaneous infiltrations are given loco dolenti at short intervals of time. In this way a mixture of readily available drugs is administered. There are many indications for mesotherapy, although most applications are found in the field of the osteo-articular affections. As yet there is no scientific explanation for the effect of this therapy. Studies on this subject are currently being performed.

Cryptotetany--place of EMG-recording.
Ninety-two cryptotetany tests were performed with simultaneous EMG-recording in the M. Interosseus dorsalis I and the M. Opponens pollicis. It was found that, in 21 cases out of 92 (22.8%), exclusively in the M. Interosseus dorsalis I, and in 11 cases out of 92 (11.9%), exclusively in the M. Opponens pollicis, multiplet activity was detected for at least 2 minutes. From this study it appears that, in performing the cryptotetany test, the M. Opponens pollicis is certainly not be preferred to the M. Interosseus dorsalis as the only place of recording. It appears, on the contrary, that simultaneous recording in the M. Interosseus dorsalis I and the M. Opponens pollicis is to be preferred to a recording exclusively in the M. Interosseus dorsalis I. In this way, a not unsignificant number of false negative cryptotetany tests can be avoided.
