title: [Intraosseous osteosynthesis in closed diaphyseal fractures of the femur].
abstract: The author has substantiated the conditions of rigid osteosynthesis of the femur in its diaphyseal fractures at any level on the basis of anatomic and morphological and biomechanical studies. The operation is performed by a closed or half-open technique without drilling the medullary canal and without employing an electro-optical transducer or other devices and equipment. Rods of titan WT6 alloy with rectangular cross-section are used as intraosseous fixators. The rods are inserted in the antegrade position. They are prepared before the operation from semifinished rods with regard to the individual parameters af the bone 67 patients have been operated. They recovered their working capacity 2-3 months after osteosynthesis. No plaster bandage is applied. The author believes that the aim of osteosynthesis consists in early restoration of the function.
