[Surgical treatment of chronic purulent diseases of extremities' bones and great joints].

: Results of treatment of chronic purulent diseases of extremities' bones (n=414) and great joints (n=136) were analyzed. Combined treatment included surgical sanation of the inflammatory focus, autospongioplasty of residual cavities and defects after sequesterectomy (87 cases), extrafocal osteosynthesis, aspiration- flushing drainage. In 46 cases of severe suppuration in the zone of hip joint's endoprosthesis the resection arthroplasty was performed, in 43 cases of severe consequences of ankle-joint's fracture-dislocations -- compression talo-tibial and calcaneo-tibial arthrodesis. The follow-up was 15 years. Positive results were seen in 93.6% patients.
