title: [Experience with the treatment of open diaphyseal fractures of the bones of the leg].
abstract: Experiences with the treatment of 305 patients with 310 open diaphysial fractures of shin bones are described. Effective measures of the prevention of severe complications and invalidization are thought to be the improvement of the operative technique with an abundant jet washing of the wound by antiseptic solutions and vacuum, restricted indications for osteosynthesis and complex purposeful medication. Skeletal traction and extrafocal osteosynthesis by means of compression-distraction apparatuses are believed to be preferable for stabilization of bone splinters. Magneto-therapy is recommended from the first hours after operation.
