Dynamic compressive osteosynthesis using elaborated special device was performed in 182 patients with peri- and intraarticular fractures of various localisation. The biomechanical background that presented on the models fractures. Dosed compression provides gentle fragmets taking into account biological resorption site fragments contact till time fracture healing. Fixation stability allows to c...

The paper presents an operative technique proposed for treating severe Hallux Valgus deformity with arthrosis of the first metatarsal joint in elderly people. The procedure consists of the Keller's arthroplasty in combination with basal osteotomy of the first metatarsal bone, whereby the head of the metatarsal is displaced laterally and plantarward. The osteotomy is fixed with a reconstructive ...

The aim of treatment of LCPD disease is to prevent cox arthrosis [1]. Several treatment options have been described in order to prevent or limit femoral head deformation by containing the head within the acetabulum. Varisation osteotomy of the femur, salter osteotomy sometimes resulted in a prolonged limb or inadequate containment [2]. Ilizarov distraction technique is [3,4] now well documented...

Several proximal tibial osteotomy techniques for the medial compartment arthrosis of the knee are described and traced in their development. These techniques are of the closed wedge, dome and open wedge types. We detail the differences in planning and surgery as well the need for different fixation devices. This historical and technical description will benefit those surgeons wishing to underta...

We present two middle-aged men with posttraumatic arthrosis of the midfoot. Both patients suffered from severe pain and their foot was unable to bear weight. Both were operated using new fusion bolt 6.5 mm and additional screws. In their case, arthrodesis was mandatory and effective intervention. After surgical treatment both patients were pain free and able to walk without crutches and return ...
