[Recompression therapy in diving accidents--introduction, indication].
We show that among the numerous complications which may arise during diving, two have to be considered very carefully, namely decompression sickness and arterial gas embolism, for if treatment is being done inadequately, these may lead to permanent disability. Diagnosis and treatment are described. In general, therapy is given in a hyperbaric chamber by pure oxygen, in a hospital with the relevant equipment. Nevertheless, it is of prime importance to give, already on the scene of the diving emergency, as soon as possible pure normobaric oxygen as respiratory gas.

[Functional treatment of palmar edge fractures of the middle phalanx and palmar capsule ruptures of the interphalangeal joint].
Rupture of the palmar plate of the PIP joint is frequently followed by flexion contracture. The results of operative or immobilizing treatment are disappointing and therefore 46 patients have been treated by a Capener splint. 35 of these joints could be reviewed for the functional result. Only in five cases was extension reduced by five to ten degrees, the remaining being normal in this respect. By contrast flexion was limited in 27 patients, in 19 of them by between five to ten degrees, in the remaining eight by not more than 35 degrees.
