Between 1960 and 1987 we treated 270 children for fractures of the femoral shaft. 195 could be followed up two times clinically and radiologically. The age at the time of accident is decreasing, might be a sign of battered-child syndrome. Boys were two times more afflicted than girls. Normally we use overhead extension or Weber-Bock-extension for 4-6 weeks and a pelvis leg cast for the same time afterwards. If the extension is not sufficient one reduction trial is allowed, the second one should give way the operation in the following complications: axial shift of more than 20 degrees, rotational aberration of more than 15 degrees and fragment deviation in more fragment fractures. The torsion was measured using Rippstein's method. 17 patients showed a difference between the angles of antetorsion of more than 10 degrees after being 18 years of age (only 2 of them were operated). Length growing was also measured and more confirmed in the only extended fractures. Both parameters showed better results, when both "detorsional thrusts" came after the accident. So the indication for an operative proceeding should be more liberal after the 7th and more often after the 12th year of age.

Discrepancy between the terms of clinical observation and normalization of gastric functions was established on the basis of a time-course study of gastric secretory function in 189 diphylobothriasis patients examined before the treatment and 1-2, 5-6, 10-12 months after it. Recovery of the secretory function took less than 5-6 months in people recovered from short-term invasion (less than a year), while in patients recovered from long-term invasion (lasting more than a year) it took 10-12 months, and reduced secretory activity in the latter group was still observed in many cases 10-12 months after treatment. Results of the study may be used in optimization of terms and forms of clinical observation.
