title: [Treatment of diaphyseal fractures of the humerus and the leg bones].
abstract: In the period from 1983 to May, 1988 229 patients were treated at the 2nd traumatological department of the Podolsk Central Regional Hospital for fractures of the diaphyses of the humerus and leg bones. The method of shortened plaster casts and early function was used among other methods in the treatment of 48 patients. The method requires strict indications with due consideration for the degree of instability, shortens the time of hospital stay by 8-10 days and the period of general incapacity by 15-18 days, and allows the patient's residual working capacity to be put into action early.
