[Principles of intramedullary nailing of the femur and tibia].

The interlocking nail technique is a perfected method to stabilise even complex shaft fractures of tibia and femur. There are some advantages of this technique compared with Küntscher's intramedullary nailing, such as avoidance of telescoping and rotation of the fragments. In view of the principles of interlocking nailing and some hints on indication, as given here, the orthopaedic surgeon will obtain good results in the treatment of shaft fractures when proceeding as described.

[Supracondylar upper arm fracture in childhood].

For the last 28 years condylar upper arm fractures have been treated at the Department of Surgery of Erlangen University mainly via the extention after Baumann. 182 cases out of 306 were followed up clinically. Extension treatment after Baumann is a technically simple procedure and offers the possibility of continual control and correction of repositioning. Treatment results are good. We could not observe Volkmann's contraction among our patients. Operation does not decisively improve the results, whereas the risk is increased. It should remain restricted to those cases only which cannot be successfully treated by conservative measures.
