چکیده
The surgery of advanced arthritis of the knee joint is attracting considerable attention, and the value ofosteotomy (Jackson and Waugh 1961, Gari#{233}py 1964, Coventry 1965, Benjamin 1969) and ofarthroplasty (Walldius 1957, McKeever 1960, Shiers 1960, Young 1963, Platt and Pepler 1969, Turner and Aufranc 1969) has been discussed in the recent orthopaedic literature. MacIntosh gave a preliminary report on the value of hemiarthroplasty in 1958 and in 1966 reported a review of fifty-eight rheumatoid knees. This further review was undertaken to make an independent assessment of the results of the operation and to determine its place in the surgical treatment of advanced osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis of the knee.
