[Rupture of the distal insertion of the biceps brachii tendon--case report].

A case of 44 years old male with rupture of the distal insertion of the biceps brachii tendon of the dominant extremity is presented. Two approaches were used; anterior one to find the tendon and posterior one to reattach the tendon to radial tuberosity according to Anderson and Boyd technique. Fourteen months after surgery the patient entirely regained preinjury level of elbow flexion and forearm supination if strength and endurance is concerned.

[Traumatic hip dislocation in children].

Three children aged 7, 9 and 11 were treated because of traumatic dislocation of the hip. There was one case of anterior and two cases of posterior iliac dislocation. The reduction was performed under general anaesthesia directly after admission. In two children derotational shoe for 6 weeks and a plaster for 3 weeks in third case were used in after treatment. The unweighing of the limb was maintained for 6 weeks more. Subsequently, the gradual weight bearing was allowed. Radiographic examination of two children 1.5 and 3.75 years after injury revealed normal hip joints. There was no restriction of physical activity of these children.

[Surgical treatment of spastic flatfoot using Gorynski's method].

After failure analysis in so far applied surgical treatment of spastic flatfoot the technique of synthesis of already existing procedures have been offered. Foot alignment is achieved by the reduction of the talus in relation to the calcaneus that is secured by bony graft after Grice and front-rearfoot alignment with Kirschner's wire fixation through calcaneus to talus and secondly cuboid to calcaneus. The muscular balance is provided by elongation of the calcaneal tendon and transposition of peroneal brevis tendon into tendon of tibialis posterior muscle. In the after treatment long cast immobilization is after 3 weeks replaced by walking cast for next 9 weeks. This management proved to be clinically successful for 15 years.
