[Outcome of conservative treatment of traumatic hip dislocation]. 1975

Iu P Kolesnikov, and G M Burmakova

The authors report an analysis of the results obtained after conservative therapy for femoral dislocations. Reduction of luxations was accomplished after the Djanalidze and Kocher method with subsequent immobilization of the extremity by means of skeletal extension, plaster cast and bandaging one leg to the other. The results proved to be different depending on the technic of reduction employed, fixation of the extremity and its duration, and the start of the weight-bearing on the injured extremity. Some recommendations on prophylaxis of arthroses immediately after femoral dislocation are given.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D002370	Casts, Surgical	Dressings made of fiberglass, plastic, or bandage impregnated with plaster of paris used for immobilization of various parts of the body in cases of fractures, dislocations, and infected wounds. In comparison with plaster casts, casts made of fiberglass or plastic are lightweight, radiolucent, able to withstand moisture, and less rigid.

D014143	Traction	The pull on a limb or a part thereof. Skin traction (indirect traction) is applied by using a bandage to pull on the skin and fascia where light traction is required. Skeletal traction (direct traction), however, uses pins or wires inserted through bone and is attached to weights, pulleys, and ropes.
