[Resection of the ischium in paraplegics (author's transl)].
A technique of resection of the ischium in paraplegics is described. It aims to avoid pressure sores arising from the development of hygromata in active paraplegics. The resection must be complete, subperiosteal and bilateral when necessary. A muscular plasty must be made by suturing the hamstrings to the pyriformis and gluteus medius.
