In all of the cases obser\-ed showing this condition,the shaft of the femur was in contact with the baseof the neck and immobilization was not complete. tion, and this is borne out by my seriesof cases. Aloderate overriding of the longbones and consequent shortening leavesbut slight permanent disability. Withoverriding of the fractured ends and conse-quent shortening of the muscles there ismuch less tendency to angudar fracture of the middle third of the femurwith the fractured ends overriding and inopposition, in which the long axes of thetwo parts are parallel, gives good functioneven though the shortening be as greatas two inches. Fractures in the upper and lower thirdsof the femur are particularly hard tohandle. The method of treatment which the pull of strong muscles or you will bedisappointed. Rather take as much strai
