title: [Allogenic half-joint transplantations].
abstract: Reported in this paper are twelve cases of allogenic transplantation of half-joints and quarter-joints, following removal of locally delimited tumours. Three transplants were incorporated with functionally satisfactory result to three patients over a period of seven years. Infections and recurrence of tumours were the most frequent causes of failure of transplantations. These results are discussed together with possibilities of future allogenic half-joint transplantations.
