[Late septic complications of internal fixations (author's transl)].
The review of the authors' 5 year material (from 1971 to 1975) showed 5 late latent septic complications. The average time in which septic signs became evident, was 7.7 months in their cases. Attention is drawn to certain inadequacies during operations, which may have a role in the aetiology of these infections, and to the importance of the correct assessment of the follow-up X-rays.
