[Malignant degeneration of chronic suppurative bone diseases].
Out of 1189 patients with osteomyelitis of the Hungarian Institute of Medical Rehabilitation malignant degeneration in the region of purulent bone process has been observed in 6 cases by the authors. Out of them 5 cases were carcinoma planocellulare and 1 case was sarcoma gigantocellulare. During the detailed analyses of the cases it is pointed out by the authors that on the basis of the standpoint established regarding the rehabilitation in locomotor diseases the indication of the amputation in patients with osteomyelitis is not absolutely limited to the cases undoubtedly malignized. Rehabilitation and resocialization of the patients is better promoted with the performed amputation and the up-to-date manufactured prosthesis than by a series of unsuccessful and hazardous therapeutical experiments.
