    An experience with 137 operations of closed intramedullary osteosynthesis of tibial bones with Kuncher pins is analysed. Indications to surgery, technic of osteosynthesis and complications are described. Average terms of patients' incapacity were 130.7 plus or minus 14.4 days. Late results were studied in 118 patients. Good and satisfactory issues were gained in 117 patients, poor--in 1.
