Since 1983 we have treated 19 cases of medial neck of femur fracture by using the dynamic hip screw. A follow-up of these patients has shown bad result in 12 cases. We have abandoned the indications for implantation of DHS.

Survey on the diagnostic value of scintigraphy of the spinal and cranial liquor spaces as demostrated by case reports.
For the diagnosis of lumbar P.I.D. discography is much superior to myelography. The risks of both techniques are the same, but the side-effects of discography are clearly less. Higher lesions remain a problem if they do not show up neurologically (s. the prolapsed disc at L 2/3). Here segmental blocking, posterior gaping of the intervertebral space and displacement of the dural sac show clearly the posterior prolapse. In the standard discogram of the lower 3 discs it would have been missed. In spite of this our present experience with lumbar discography is so positive, that we are about to test a long term series, whether and to which extend discography could replace myelography in cases where there is no hint at a space-occupying lesion, other than a disc or whether the order of these investigations should be reversed.
The anastomosis between the vertebral artery and occipital artery in case of proximal subclavian artery occlusion is demonstrated. The reasons for development and angiographic visibility of this channel are discussed.
Differential diagnostic problems are considered in 8 patients suffering from multiple sclerosis and cervical spondylosis simultaneously. When a clinical suspicion for multiple sclerosis is combined with a relatively normal sagittal diameter of the cervical vertebral canal, myelographic findings due to cervical spondylosis must be evaluated carefully.
