[Lunatomalacia therapy. I. Conservative treatment (author's transl)].
The results of the conservative treatment of 12 patients with lunatomalacia are reported on. If we take into consideration the subjective data as well as the clinical and roentgenological evidence, only 2 can be considered "good". On the other hand there were 5 "fair" and 5 "poor" results. In spite of the predominance of disappointing results, the conservative treatment can lead to very good late results. The comparison with operative measure about which there will be reports later, shows these operations have no real great advantage.
