[Primary synostosis of the tarsus in children. Apropos of 32 cases in 20 patients].

The authors have studied 32 tarsal coalitions in 20 children. Twenty two were between the talus and the calcaneum, 4 were medial and 6 were rare varieties. The diagnosis is often missed because 40 p. 100 of the children with tarsal coalition had no complaints. The indirect radiological signs have been analysed and precise techniques described for detecting the coalition. Only 11 feet were operated on. On 4 occasions the coalition was simply resected. This always gave a good functional result and good mobility was obtained in the subtaloid joint in 2 cases. The other cases were treated by triple arthrodesis. The authors consider that an earlier diagnosis would lead to better prevention of secondary deformities. The best indication for simple resection is in coalition between the calcaneum and the navicular.

[Fractures of the tarsus and metatarus in children--diagnosis, treatment, results].

Within 4 years (September 1977 to September 1981) 169 closed fractures of the feet were seen at our paediatric-surgical outpatient dept. Special therapeutic problems arose only in fractures of the talus and the calcaneus, although necrosis of the talus were rare. Concerning treatment a plaster cast, sufficient relief and early arch-support are essential. Fractures of the other tarsal bones were mostly without problems, a conservative treatment was used for these cases.
