Coracoid impingement results from encroachment on the coracohumeral space, presenting as anterior shoulder pain and clicking, particularly in forward flexion, medial rotation, and adduction. In eight shoulders in seven patients, coracohumeral decompression by excision of the lateral 1.5 cm of the coracoid with re-attachment of the conjoined tendon gave pain relief in all, and complete relief in six. This procedure is described and recommended.

1. Exercise ischaemia in athletes with chronic pain over the postero-medial border of the tibia is described.

2. Fasciotomy of the compartment of the deep flexor muscles as a treatment of "shin splints" is recommended.

3. In eleven patients the symptoms were completely relieved and the athletes were able to start effective training within four weeks.

1. Resistant cases of tennis elbow are explained on the basis of an entrapment neuropathy of the radial nerve and its branches.

2. An operation is described to explore these nerves through an anterior muscle-splitting incision.

3. Thirty-eight elbows in thirty-six patients have been operated on with improvement in all.

A total of 92 patients with symptoms for over six months due to subacromial impingement of the shoulder, who were being treated with physiotherapy, were included in this study. While continuing with physiotherapy they waited a further six months for surgery. They were divided into three groups based on the following four clinical and radiological criteria: temporary benefit following steroid injection, pain in the mid-arc of abduction, a consistently positive Hawkins test and radiological evidence of impingement. Group A fulfilled all four criteria, group B three criteria and group C two criteria. A total of nine patients improved while waiting for surgery and were excluded, leaving 83 who underwent arthroscopic subacromial decompression (SAD). The new Oxford shoulder score was recorded pre-operatively and at three and 12 months post-operatively.

A total of 51 patients (group A) had a significant improvement in the mean shoulder score from 18 (13 to 22) pre-operatively to 38 (35 to 42) at three months (p < 0.001). The mean score in this group was significantly better than in group B (21 patients) and C (11 patients) at this time. At one year patients in all groups showed improvement in scores, but patients in group A had a higher mean score (p = 0.01). At one year patients in groups A and B did better than those in group C (p = 0.01).

Arthroscopic SAD is a beneficial intervention in selected patients. The four criteria could help identify patients in whom it is likely to be most effective.

We diagnosed entrapment of the superficial peroneal nerve in 17 patients (19 legs) with a mean age of 41 years. In all cases, plain radiographs of the leg, nerve-conduction studies of the superficial peroneal nerve and measurement of the intramuscular pressure at rest after exercise were normal. Diagnostic tests for nerve compression during rest after exercise produced pain and clinical signs in all.

We performed decompression of the superficial peroneal tunnel in 14 patients and local fasciectomy in three. Fourteen patients (80%) were free from symptoms or satisfied with the result.

One hundred and twenty-seven cases of intervertebral disc calcification in children, including 11 previously unreported cases, have been analysed. A distinction is made between symptomatic and asymptomatic patients, whose age, sex and spinal distributions of the calcifications have been shown to differ. Radiologically detectable protrusions and later resorption of the calcifications are common events in symptomatic children, but are unrecorded in asymptomatic children. The spinal distribution of paediatric calcifications is quite different to that of adult and canine calcifications of the nucleus pulposus.

1. Three cases of traumatic anuria following muscle ischaemia ("crush syndrome") are reported.

2. The pathogenesis and treatment of the condition are discussed.

3. A scheme of management directed to the prevention of renal failure is proposed.

Three children between the ages of 18 months and four years presented with a discharging sinus or sinuses at the wrist due to a ‘sacred’ thread (the Moli Dhaga) which had been tied around it. This thread had been forgotten by the parents and had become embedded in the soft tissues of the wrist. Plain radiographs showed a circumferential constriction in the soft tissue shadow in all three. In two, there was a periosteal reaction in the distal radius or ulna with an indentation which we have called the constriction sign. Surgical removal of the buried thread was successful in all cases.
