Author describes a new method, the intraosseal compression loop, unknown until now in this country for the treatment of intraarticular, osteochondral fractures. The advantages of the new method are analysed, attention is called however to the fact, that it can be used only in the therapy of certain types of fractures and it can be only one from the great variety of procedures for the treatment of osteochondrial fractures. It is demonstrated with a few examples that the method can be used to treat unstable diaphyseal fractures too.
