AbstractA report is given on 170 orthopedic operations performed under hemi-spinal anaesthesia. The anaesthetic agent used was hyperbaric bupivacaine 1% (Marcaine, Carbostesine). Of these cases 92 were total hip joint replacements and 78 other operations of the lower extremities. Generally, the patients were classified as category three risks (A.S.A.) Their average age was 63 years. The anaesthetics and postoperative courses were smooth. In the total prosthetic hip joint operations hypotension during the implantation of acelabulum--or femur--cement was not observed. With doses of 1 ml of the local anaesthetic the average duration of analgesia was 3 hours and 10 minutes, and with added vasoconstrictor 4 hours.
