    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Der unaufgebohrte Tibiamarknagel (UTN) vereinigt die Vorteile des Fixateur externe mit denen des Marknagels in der Behandlung der Unterschenkelfraktur [5]. In der Zeit von März 1992 bis März 1993 wurden 33 Frakturen (31 geschlossene and 2 offene) mit dem UTN stabilisiert. In 67% (22 Patienten) bestanden A1-, A2- and A3-Brüche gemäß der AO-Klassifikation. Sechsmal lag eine Mitbeteiligung des oberen Sprunggelenks vor. 27 Personen konnten durchschnittlich 6 Monate postoperativ nachuntersucht werden; 26 erzielten ein ausgezeichnetes klinisches Ergebnis. Die mittlere Konsolidierungszeit lag bei 12 bis 14 Wochen.
    Notes: Abstract The unreamed tibial nail (UTN) combines the advantages of the external fixator (preservation of the cortical blood supply) with that of conventional intramedullary nailing (closed system, high patient comfort, no pin problems) in the treatment of the lower leg fracture [5]. Within 1 year (III/92 to III/93) 31 closed and 2 open fractures were stabilised with UTN. In 67% (22 persons) we found fractures of the A1, A2 and A3 types according to the AO classification. In 6 patients there was a combined lesion with involvement of the ankle joint. A follow-up of 27 patients was done, extending to an average of 6 months postoperatively. The clinical and radiological results were excellent in 26; average fracture healing time was about 12–14 weeks.

    Notes: Abstract In a study of the clinical importance of polymorphonuclear granulocytes (PMN) for the monitoring of wound healing we investigated the postsurgical course of nine patients all of whom had undergone trauma surgery and had no wound complications. The “stimulated random PMN locomotion” was evaluated by a new migration filter device which preserves the cells in their genuine priming state, simulating in vivo conditions. The percentage of all activated PMN, expressed by the total migration index (TMI) reflected the highest median immediately after surgery (z max = 30.1 %) and dropped to the lowest value on day 13 (z max = 13.9%). The mean invasion depth (T/2) of the cells along the migration distance into the filter showed only slight variations over time. The neutrophil migration activity (NMA), described by T/2 and TMI, behaved in a similar way to TMI. In studying physiological healing, preliminary results indate that TMI, which expresses PMN activation, is an efficient tool in the postoperative monitoring of patients, and might in the future serve as a basis for an early warning system for wound healing complications.

    Notes: Abstract Many unstable fractures and fracture dislocations of the lower thoracic and the lumbar spine are treated operatively. Internal fixation is mostly done via a posterior approach, anchoring the screws in the pedicles of the vertebrae. In the Traumatology Section of the Department of Surgery, Graz University, three different implantation systems have been employed in recent years. Sixty of all the patients operated on were available for follow-up an average of 36 months after operation. We compared them with respect to type of implant, paying special attention to any loss of reduction.
