The extraarticular technique of closed wire tunnelization ofpathological reorganization zone by Konig disease type in an elderly female patient

The little-damage technique of closed wire tunnelization of the zone of condyle pathological reorganization has been developed. The use of the technique proposed for treatment of aseptic necrosis of femoral condyle in three elderly female patients has demonstrated that even in the immediate periods of observations (3-6 months after surgery), by the data of roentgenological methods of examination and ultrasonography, the positive dynamics of reorganization is noted in the focus of pathology with the restoration of bone tissue structure and articular surface configuration. Both the decrease of pain syndrome intensity and the increase of range of movements in the joint are determined clinically.
