[A device for removal of curvilinear fixators].

Osteosynthesis designed by A. I. Seppo is the method of choice in the treatment of fracture of the neck of the femur. Extracting the fixative elements with a standard extractor requires an additional trepanation of the bone. The authors have proposed an instrument to remove crivilinear fixatives that assume the proper direction of the extracting force, thus reducing the traumatism of the intervention.

Foley catheter, a simple device for removal of oesophageal foreign bodies.

An oesophageal foreign body is a common mishap in children. Removal through oesophagoscopy is a standard procedure but where this facility is not available this rather common accident could pose serious problems. A foley catheter was used repeatedly for the extraction of smooth foreign bodies from the oesophagus without fluoroscopic control. The procedure is safe and could be used whenever oesophagoscopy is not available.
