External Fixation: Principles and Applications
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2015 The modularity and ease of application of modern external fixation has expanded its potential use in the management of fractures and other musculoskeletal conditions. In fracture care, it can be used for provisional and definitive fixation. Short-term provisional applications include "damage control" and periarticular fracture fixation.

The Mechanics of External Fixation [PDF]
HSS Journal®: The Musculoskeletal Journal of Hospital for Special Surgery, 2007 External fixation has evolved from being used primarily as a last resort fixation method to becoming a main stream technique used to treat a myriad of bone and soft tissue pathologies. Techniques in limb reconstruction continue to advance largely as a result of the use of these external devices. A thorough understanding of the biomechanical principles
