[Subacute osteomyelitis of the acetabulum].

A 15-months-old girl presented an excentration of the hip associated with a defect image of the acetabulum. Arthrography revealed a communication between the hip joint and the acetabular defect. Bacteriological specimens of the articular fluid were negative.

Shaft forearm fractures in children: intramedullary nailing with immediate motion: a preliminary report.

Nailing is a good solution for shaft forearm fractures in children who require surgery. A closed reduction is very often possible owing to the bent tip of the pins. The procedure avoids extensive dissection, unlike epiphyseal plates.

Orthopaedic treatment of paediatric multiple trauma patients. A new technique.

In multiple trauma, skeletal injuries are generally responsible for long hospital stays, with concomitant nursing inconveniences and for most of the sequelae. A new operating technique has been perfected, especially adapted to paediatric traumatology: stable elastic rodding, precise and less aggressive technique. It avoids plastering and traction systems, and rapidly restores sufficient independence for a return to school.
