[Urologic complications of pelvic fractures].

In 37 of the 258 patients with pelvic fractures rather severe urological complications were diagnosed. It seems that the majority of polytraumatized patients can be considered as potential urologic cases. The characteristic urological complications associated with the various types of fractures are described. The importance of urgent urological examination is stressed in order to detect urological injuries requiring acute care and to determine the need for operation or for conservative treatment. Co-operation between the traumatologist, the urologist and the radiologist will ensure the definitive care of the polytraumatized patient and the best chances for recovery.

[Classification of 557 open fractures of the leg and results of the treatment].

The results of the treatment of 557 open fractures of the leg are discussed from the standpoint of healing of the fractures. According to the severity of the fracture the patients have been ranked into 3 groups. Although in 95,1% of the patients recovery was obtained, in 50% of severe injuries healing occurred only over 20 weeks. The time of recovery was influenced unfavourably by the non stable osteosyntheses. Conservative treatment performed in a great number of patients yielded satisfactory results. The number of the cases treated with stable osteosynthesis is relatively small for comparison with the former groups. In the authors' opinion, the classification of the cases according to the severity of the fracture is of great importance, since it influences the treatment, the recovery time as well as the prognosis.
