[Abdominal emergencies in the daily practice of a traumatology center].

This study analyses 57 cases of abdominal trauma occurring in patients with multiple injuries admitted to the accident unit in Garches, over a period of four years. After a few remarks concerning the use of a safety belt, the authors discuss in particular: -- 25 hepatic lesions; -- 20 splenic lesions. These lesions were operated on by the surgeons on the unit with the exception of 9 cases where a specialised surgeon was called in. In the vast majority of cases, we consider the patient should not be transferred to the other units but, if possible, all lesions should be treated simultaneously in one centre.

[Sequelae of acetabulum fractures treated by total hip prosthesis].

The authors have treated by total prosthesis 39 cases of fractures of the acetabulum, at the stage of severe sequellae. 21 of them had been initially treated conservatively, and 18 had been previously operated on. 23 times they used conventional prosthesis anchored with cement. 8 cases became loose and had to be re-operated on. 16 times an original prosthesis made of highly porous metal was used with no complication at the present time.
