The mode of treatment had been restin bed, with traction in the line of thedeformity applied to the diseased leg, andoccasionally traction in the axis of theneck of the femur, the sound side beingbound to a long side-splint. Blisterswere usually applied behind the trochan-ter major. When the deformity was re-duced the patient was allowed to goabout with the short traction-splint andcrutches, or the long traction-splint, withor without crutches, as the case might Literature of 96-97-98.
