Transposition of the flexors on the femoral condyles in the treatment of infantile cerebral paralysis [SULLA TRASPOSIZIONE DEI FLESSORI SUI CONDILI FEMORALI NELLA CURA DELLE PARALISI CEREBRALI INFANTILI]
The problem of triple flexion of the lower extremity in infantile cerebral paralysis is considered, and a variation to Eggers' technique proposed, involving the detachment of the distal insertions of the gastrocnemius muscles, capsulotomy, and transposition of the tendons of the sectioned flexors to the upturned proximal insertions of the gastrocnemius muscles. The action of the patella alar ligaments in the etiology of knee flexions is not recognized. The proposed technique, employed only in the most serious cases, has given excellent results, evaluated as a function of the degree of hip extension and knee extension and the presence of foot equinus. In support of the validity of this new technique, the fact that postoperative curving of the knee appears only in an irrelevant percentage of cases is considered significant
Clinical study of the influence of an association of arginine, lysine and lactose in the treatment of osteoporosis and rickets [INFLUENZA DI UN'ASSOCIAZIONE DI ARGININA, LISINA E LATTOSIO NEL TRATTAMENTO DELL'OSTEOPOROSI E RACHITISMO]
The clinical use of arginine, lysine and lactose association has demonstrated its effectiveness in promoting calcium absorption. The results obtained in the treatment of 60 cases of rachitism and osteoporosis were satisfactory

Corrective osteotomy and development of the hip [OSTEOTOMIE DE CENTRAGE ET DEVELOPPEMENT DE LA HANCHE]
If after a certain time a control is made on subjects who have undergone an osteotomy, a peculiar anatomopathological alteration will be observed consisting of a lateral shortening of the neck of the femur and an increase of the angle of inclination and a subluxation of the head of the femur. For the authors the pathogeny of this lesion is due to an alteration of the proximal growth cartilage of the femur and to the resulting modification of the C-A angle, which is 125° in normal subjects. The balance of the pressures and tensions and, in particular, the displacement on to the external growth cartilage of the resultant 'R', caused by the frequent irregularity of the epiphyseal nucleus in congenital dislocation of the hip, are responsible for the morphological alterations of the hi
