title: [The treatment of plastic deformities of the long tubular bones].
abstract: This paper presents a special reaction of long tubular bone to a singular compression or bending stress. The characteristics of this special type of reaction to injury are exposed on the basis of bibliographical data and experiences in 12 own patients. Traumatic bowing in the forearm and shank leads to loss of function respectively to delayed union. Up to the age for ten years spontaneous correction by further growth is possible. Beyond this age treatment consists in sensitive correction in general anesthesia and plaster fixation.
