    In Europe and America, injuries of the medial menisci are always frequenter than of the lateral. For example, the ratio between the iujuries of medial and lateral menisci is 27:1 (Andreesen) or 10:1 (Bircher). But in Japan, injuries of the lateral menisci are frequenter than of the medial. The ratio between lateral and medial menisci is 1:6 (Ayani) or 1:4 (Amako) . In the injuries of the lateral menisci in Japan, author found many discus menisci. Tamura reported 12 discus in 26 operations of menisci. Author experienced 23 discus in 26 cases of lateral menisci and only 3 cases of semilunar form. On the contrary, Jeannopouls found only 20 discus in 29 lateral menisci and Dunn found 8 discus in 81 lateral menisci. Author could not find the typical miner-knee in Japan. The meniscus injuries of the coal-mine worker in Japan are not frequent and quite the same as the other people.
    The patholgical changes are horizontal tear, and oedema. Author concluded that in Japan there were much discus menisci than in Europe and America.

    Upon my clinical investigations, thirty cases of lesions of semilunar cartilage were found among seventy-six cases (eighty-six legs) of knee-joint lesions. I have reached the following conclusions;
    1. Lesions of semilunar cartilage have been experimentally ascertained to be mainly caused by external indirect actions. But not a few cases of unknown cause are also observed.
    2. As for its anamnesis, close attention should be paid to symptoms of locking.
    3. Atrophy of femoral muscles arises comparatively early in almost every case.
    4. Lesions of semilumar cartilage are not always accompanied with restriction of extension of knee-joint. And lesions of semilumar cartilage without restriction of extension are also very frequently noticed.
    5. Symptoms of I and II Steinmann and of Mc. Murray are to be carefully examined in the diagnosis of knee-joint lesions.
    6. Symytoms of Bragard, Turner and Payr's “Türkensitz” are of little importance in the diagnosis of semilunar cartilage lesions.
    7. “Simple” X-ray photograms of 10 cases show that a new local prickle sprouts on the injuried side of the tibia or the femur. This seems to be very useful to diagnose the lesions of semilunar cartilage

    Although the pathological dislocation of hip caused by supprative coxitis in infancy was treated hitherto by subtrochanteric osteotomy. Three cases, whose femoral heads remained relatively good, were operated by acetabuloplasty with satisfactory results. Author emphasized that roentgenograms should be taken in various positions to detect the deformied, but well remained heads.

    Roentgenographic observations about changes of the femoral head in the congenital dislocation of the hip before the reduction are as follows;
    1. Delayed appearance of the ossific center of the femoral head seems to be unsignificant for the congenital dislocation of the hip.
    2. Dislocated heads of the hip have generally ordinary forms under two years of age, while above two years of age increase remarkably the unordinary.

    Although only debridgment was used hitherto in fresh compound fractures and the manipulations of fragments in the wounds were prohibited, the great advances of antibiolitics in recent years made it possible to manipulate the fragments in the wounds.
    Twenty-one osteosyntheses of fresh fractures in the wounds were performed by author as follows:
    After perfect debridgment was done in all cases within six hours after injuries, ruptured soft tissues were sutured as much as possible and the fragments were fixed by single wiring or bone sutures with silks. In some cases complementary sutures for reducing of the tension of skin were necessary, and they were removed at least after 2 or 3 weeks. Penicillin in doses of about 2 million units was used in every case.
    Although in all cases the wounds were considerable large and dirty, no suppuration was encountered, after operations.
    The author's method is very beneficial for reducing of time of healing and for anatomical and functional healing.

    In the histological research of fibrositis and subcutaneous rheumatic nodulus removed from some patients with low back pain, author found the perivascular cell infiltration, which showed allergic changes in collagenous tissues, and also subcutaneous nerves in these areas of perivascular cell infiltration. Author believes that the subcutaneous nerves in these infiltrated tissues played significant part for disclosure of pain.

    Intermediate skin grafting was applied to two syndactylisms and one burn scar contracture of foot with success.
    This method have following advantages.
    1. Good attachment to the bed as well as Thiersch graft.
    2. Certainty of the fixation with suture in the proper place.
    3. Saving of movement of the skin even at the joint.
    But this method is far inferior to the full thickness skin grafting.
