1. The results of fourteen intertrochanteric osteotomies in thirteen patients with painful arthrosis of the hip with Paget's disease of the related bones have been analysed. 2.

1. A case of femoral artery occlusion after fracture of the femur occurring several days after internal fixation with a medullary nail is described. 2.
