[Macroanatomy of the flexor tendons (author's transl)].

The article describes, first of all, the structure and mechanism of working of the tendon sheath, as well as its wall structure, pertaining to the triple-jointed fingers. This is followed by a description of the architecture of the superficial and deep flexor tendon. The next section of the article deals with the tendon sheath of the thumb and with the architecture of the long flexor tendon of the thumb. A clinically important tendon variant between flexor pollicis longus and flexor digitorum superficialis of the index finger is described. After the division into zones, the article goes into details of the mm. lumbricales, their anatomy and function, as well as with the phenomenon of the lumbricalis-plus finger.

[Skeletal characteristics of the hand in cervical cancer].

Under consideration is the status of hand skeleton studied electroradiographically in patients with cervical cancer and in females of the same age without cancer. It is shown that in cervical cancer patients skeleton ageing was less pronounced. The value of electroradiography for determining skeleton age is emphasized. An attention is given to the necessity of a more careful observation over persons with "young" skeleton age.

[Mammography--its use in hand surgery].

"Mammography" is a special radiological technique employed for soft tissues. It is possible with this technique to detect microcalcifications in the breast, especially in the soft connective tissue of the mammary gland. In hand surgery it is often a problem to detect and diagnose radiolucent foreign bodies, soft tissue tumors, or even sometimes bone tumors. We have, therefore, on the basis of our special experience in "Mammography of the Tendo achilles" developed a similar technique for soft tissue diagnosis in hand surgery. In this study we give the exposure technique and four examples of this special investigation in osteoid osteoma, injuries with glass particles of a finger-joint, an explosion injury of the hand and an assessment of a glass injury of the soft tissues.
