    Description / Table of Contents: The thermoplastic nickel–titanium alloy Nitinol has excellent shape memory when transferred from deep-freeze temperatures to body temperature or even 45°C, which means that staples made of this material for use in internal fixation exert a lasting compressive effect after implantation. From October 1995 to January 1998 we performed 22 compression osteosynthesis operations on scaphoid bones. The indications were: dislocated fracture in 10 cases, in 6 of them with Quervain’s luxation fracture, and pseudarthroses in 12. In 10 osteosynthesis operations we used drilling wires in addition, for internal direction of the compressing force of the staples. After osteosynthesis 21 of the 22 scaphoids healed. Three clamps were removed after the bone had healed. One staple broke with the bone in an accident. Our first impressions suggest that thermoplastic Nitinol staples are ideal for compression osteosynthesis of the scaphoid bone for the treatment of displaced fractures or pseudarthroses in the middle third. Their use offers advantages over osteosynthesis with screws. Because our experience with these staples was so good we shortened the period of immobilization from 12 to 6 weeks.
    Notes: Die sog. “Formgedächtnis”-Eigenschaft der Nickel-Titan-Legierung NITINOL beim Wechsel von der Tiefkühlung zur Körperwärme bzw. 45°C gibt Klammern, die aus diesem Material und zu diesem Zweck gefertigt wurden, nach der Implantation eine dauerhaft komprimierende Wirkung. Von Oktober 1995 bis Januar 1998 führten wir 22 Osteosynthesen an Kahnbeinen durch. Die Indikationen waren: 10mal verschobene Brüche, davon 6 bei De-Quervain-Luxationsfraktur, und 12mal Falschgelenke. Bei 10 Osteosynthesen benutzten wir zusätzlich Kirschner-Drähte zur inneren Führung der komprimierenden Kraft der Klammer. 21 von 22 Osteosynthesen führten zur Heilung. 3 Klammern wurden nach der Knochenheilung entfernt. Eine Klammer brach mit dem Knochen nach einem geeigneten Trauma. Es kam zu keiner Infektion. Klammern aus NITINOL scheinen sich nach unseren ersten Erfahrungen zur Kompressionsosteosynthese an Kahnbeinen wegen verschobener Brüche und wegen Falschgelenken im mittleren Drittel zu eignen. Ihre Anwendung hat Vorteile gegenüber der Osteosynthese mit Schrauben. Aufgrund der guten Erfahrungen kürzten wir die Zeit der Ruhigstellung von 12 auf 6 Wochen.

    Notes: Summary The microsurgical implantation of a saphenous vascular axis into free transplanted autologous isolated rib segments in Beagle dogs led to complete revascularization of the bone after two, three and four weeks. Indian ink and Mercox-injected specimens showed a vascular network which penetrated the entire cortical layer. Semi-thin sections revealed osteoblasts and osteoclasts visible in the canals of the revascularized cortical layer, while the control specimen without vessel implantation showed nothing but ground substance. The revascularized bones did not contain any necrotic areas. The newly formed vascular system consisted of arteries, veins and their anastomoses. The veins appeared to produce a greater number of new vessels than the arteries.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung An der Chirurgischen Universitätsklinik Basel wurden von 1970-1981 88 Stabilisierungen mit dem Fixateur externe durchgeführt. Das sind weniger als 2 % der sonst durchgeführten internen Osteosynthesen am Fernur und der Tibia. 56mal wurde der Fixateur externe zur Primärversorgung einer Fraktur eingesetzt. 32mal erfolgte die externe Fixation bei nach anderen Methoden infizierten Frakturen. Indikation, Technik, postoperativer Verlauf sowie die Nachuntersuchungsergebnisse werden dargestellt.
    Notes: Summary Between 1970 and 1981 external fixation was used in 86 patients with a total of 88 fractures. In 56 cases primary external fixation was indicated by severe injuries of the extremity. If internal fixation or conservative treatment failed, secondary external fixation was used (32 cases). In 50 %, the stability of primary external fixation was increased by means of additional lag-screw fixation. In 50 % we later changed to internal fixation, partly due to healing of the soft tissue, partly to delayed cortical bone healing. Severe osteitis was observed after primary fixation in 21 % of the cases. After an average of 31 weeks in primary and 49 weeks in secondary cases full weight-bearing was possible. Final results at follow-up are reported.
