  • Title: [The therapy of malignant fractures of the extremities (author's transl)].
    Author: Rinecker H, Dölle V.
    Journal: MMW Munch Med Wochenschr; 1975 Nov 07; 117(45):1791-6. PubMed ID: 814409.
    Abstract:
    The surgical treatment of malignant fractures of the extremities includes a wide range of methods today. The intramedullary Küntscher nailing of the femur and tibia by the AO (Society for Osteosynthesis) method, Hackethal's multiple nailing in the upper arm and fore arm, and the bone glue-plate compound osteosynthesis methods are described. The alloplastic joint prostheses for hip and knee are extended to proximal and distal femur prostheses. Total femur prosthesis with simultaneous hip and knee joint alloplasty seems to be full of prospect.
