Since its modest beginnings in the mid-nineteenth century, external fixation has seen great changes in its design and application. Once thought of as chiefly a fracture management tool, this modality has found its way into the arenas of corrective osteotomies, Charcot management, limb lengthening, nonunion treatment, and malalignment correction.

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 history of external fixation
Clinics in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery, 2003Even though external fixation is considered to be a rather "new" trend in orthopedics and traumatology, in fact it has been something used by physicians and surgeons for thousands of years. In the mid 1800's, external fixation would see some substantial growth and evolution, pioneered by physicians and surgeons whose principles are still in use today ...

The conclusion from the above clinical and experimental presentation is that stabilization by using external fixation in problematic cases is the method of choice because the risk of infection is better than by using the standard methods of plating and nailing.

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.

Duration of External Fixation, and Removal of the External Fixator
1985The time an external fixator remains in place is standardized for elective orthopedic procedures, e.g.: Intertrochanteric osteotomies in children: 4 1/2 weeks, followed by hip spica for 4 l/2 weeks. Arthrodeses of the knee joint: 4 1/2 weeks, followed by knee cast for 4 1/2 weeks. Arthrodeses of the ankle joint: 4 1/2 weeks, followed by

External Fixation of Wrist Fractures
Orthopedics, 1984ABSTRACT: One hundred and twenty-six wrist fractures treated by external fixation were reviewed, with an average followup of six months (range: one to 48 months). Most of the fractures were unstable. A radius-second metacarpal standard half-frame was used in 93.6%.

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 ...
