[The treatment of patients with arthrosis deformans of the large joints using interstitial electrostimulation]

The authors propose a new kind of conservative treatment-the intratissue electrostimulation when electric current is brought directly to the pathology focus. An analysis of results of clinical and biomechanical examination of 72 patients of the main and control groups allowed a conclusion to be made concerning high effectiveness of the new kind of therapy which makes the terms of treatment 2 times shorter. Mechanisms of curative effects reestablishing blood circulation and metabolism in the joints are studied.
