[Planimetric studies of the lumbar intervertebral space following nucleotomy by straight and angled rongeur].

Persisting, floating intervertebral disc sequesters after lumbar nucleotomy are one reason for recidivation of disc prolapses. For this reason, planimetric experiments at a lumbar intervertebral disc's cross-section are made using straight and angled forceps to estimate the maximum possible amount of curetted intervertebral material. The results show that, at the very best, no more than 70% of the intervertebral area can be reached by the common straight and angled forceps.

[Quantitative studies of the "cleared out intervertebral disk space" following nucleotomies].

Operative removal of prolapsed intervertebral disk's tissue combined with nucleotomy represents nowa days a routine operative treatment. It is left to the surgeon to clear out - more ore less totally - the intervertebral disk interspace. It can be proved, that based on operation site's anatomy and the disposal instrumentarium the total "clear out" of intervertebral tissue doesn't succeed.

[Demonstration of possible damage to the knee joint during arthroscopy].

The possible damage of the cartilaginous surface of the knee which may be caused during arthroscopy by the insertion of the trocar into the knee-joint is described. The mechanism of internal cartilaginous surface damage is photographically recorded using an additional documentation-arthroscope. If the intraarticular pressure of the knee-joint is increased before insertion of the arthroscope, damage to the inside of the knee-joint can be essentially reduced.
