    Abstract:
    The medicamentous therapy of tuberculous coxitis follows the general rules of antituberculous chemotherapy. This treatment should be completed by an operative therapy in every case. The method of radical surgery with sine-plastic, described by Göb in 1980, provides best conditions to highest radicality of this treatment. Between 1980 and 1984 13 patients were operated upon by this method in the Orthopedic Department of the Bad Berka Central Hospital. The results are mainly good. By means of a modification installed by the author a more subtle approach is achieved.
