External fixators in haemophilia
Haemophilia, 2004Summary. External fixators (EF) are not commonly used for patients with haemophilia. We describe the use of EF (Ilizarov, AO‐ uni‐ and bi‐planar fixators and Charnley clamp) in nine patients (mean age: 19.2 years; range: 9–37) with haemophilia for the following indications – arthrodesis of infected joints, treatment of open fractures and osteoclasis ...

External ring fixators: An overview
Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine, 2000External fixation is widely used in the fixation of fractures and limb deformities. The mechanical characteristics of a specific external fixator are major factors in determining the biomechanical environment at a fracture/osteotomy site and, hence, affect the healing process. Although the optimal biomechanical environment for healing of a fracture or

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 2007
The external fixator has been in use for more than a century. Wutzer (1789-1863) used pins and an interconnecting rod-and-clamp system. Parkhill (1897) and Lambotte (1900) used devices that were unilateral with four pins and a bar-clamp system. By 1960, Vidal and Hoffmann had popularized the use of an external fixator to treat open fractures and ...

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1983
External fixation is a method of immobilization that uses percutaneous pins placed in bone and linked with external connectors. The concept of external fixation appears in works of Malgaigne from the mid-19th century. Since Malgaigne's invention many other external fixation systems have been introduced, and external fixation is currently a standard ...

Instrumentation for External Fixation
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1992External skeletal fixation is a very useful technique for managing many orthopedic problems in veterinary practice. The Kirschner apparatus has been the most widely used fixator for many years in veterinary orthopedics because of its versatility, simplicity, and economy in use.

Complications of External Fixation
1982In 1950, the American orthopedic community was surveyed to determine the rightful place of external skeletal fixation in the armamentarium of fracture management (Johnson and Stovall, 1950). The majority of surgeons queried had tried and discarded external skeletal fixation because of concern for the complications associated with external fixators ...

Internal Contradictions of External Fixation. Combined External Fixation
2012The assembly of an external fixation apparatus must fully accord with the most recent developments in transosseous osteosynthesis. The experimental/theoretical and clinical knowledge base is currently such that the rigidity of bone fragment fixation in relation to the diameter of the transosseous elements used, their type and crossing angle, the ...

External skeletal fixation. Linear fixators.
The Veterinary clinics of North America. Small animal practice, 1999Linear external skeletal fixators offer some unique advantages over other fixation systems; they are biomechanically versatile, minimize surgical trauma to the fracture environment, and allow for simple staged disassembly to help promote bone healing.
