The effects of methylprednisolone acetate in the treatment of bone cysts. Results of three years follow-up.

The treatment of bone cysts by topical injection of methylprednisolone acetate was initiated at the end of 1973, and the late results are reported in this paper. In seventy-two cases followed up for one to three years favourable results have been obtained in about 90 per cent. The technique of local injection and the surgical equipment employed, in the case of focal recurrences, are considered. With this method, surgical treatment of bone cysts in youth is seldom necessary.

Technique of anatomical reduction of lumbar spondylolisthesis and its surgical stabilization.

This is a report of a method for treatment of spondylolisthesis based upon: (1) preoperative reduction of the olisthesis by plaster casts; (2) fixation of the reduction by posterior arthrodesis, accompanied by a system of instrumentation which has been developed by the authors. The treatment of severe spondyloptosis in six children and of spondylolisthesis in 14 adults is considered separately, because of the somewhat different problems in the two different age groups.
