Biomechanical analysis between Orthofix® external fixator and different K-wire configurations for pediatric supracondylar humerus fractures

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2018
Background Closed reduction and percutaneous fixation are considered as the optional treatments for displaced supracondylar humerus fractures. However, there was no published report about the biomechanical analysis in Orthofix® external fixator.

Low cost 3D printed clamps for external fixator for developing countries: a biomechanical study

3D Printing in Medicine, 2020
Background External fixation is a mainstream limb reconstruction technique, most often used after a traumatic injury. Due to the high rates of trauma in developing countries, external fixation devices are often utilized for immediate fracture ...

Treatment of unstable distal radius fractures: non-invasive dynamic external fixator versus volar locking plate – functional and radiological outcome in a prospective case-controlled series

SICOT-J, 2015
Introduction: Distal radius fracture (DRF) is a common injury and various treatment modalities including open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) with volar locking plate are available. More recently, a non-invasive external fixator has been used.

Short-term outcome of fragility fractures of the pelvis in the elderly treated with screw osteosynthesis and external fixator

European Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery, 2021
Background The treatment of fragility fractures of the pelvis is rising challenge for orthopedic trauma surgeons. Operative treatment should allow immediate full weight bearing and early mobilisation but should also be as minimal invasive as possible ...

Bony callus stiffness indirectly evaluated by the axial load-share ratio in vivo as a guide to removing a monolateral external fixator safely

International Orthopaedics, 2021
As the monolateral external fixator is increasingly used in trauma-control and definitive management for high-energy long bone fractures, timing the fixator removal remains a challenge for surgeons.

External fixator‐assisted plating osteosynthesis in a rabbit model of femoral bone defects appears to be a feasible and reproducible surgical technique: preliminary insights from a bone substitute study

Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics, 2023
Purpose The aims of this study were to assess the complications associated with the use of an external fixator‐assisted plate osteosynthesis technique to stabilize a femoral bone defect in a rabbit model and to evaluate if this technique could avoid the ...

Osteosynthesis of fractures after elbow ankylosis treated with an Ilizarov external ring fixator: A case report

Trauma Case Reports, 2020
Treatment with an Ilizarov ring external fixator is less invasive of soft tissues than is open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) surgery. Operative treatment of fractures with an Ilizarov ring external fixator after elbow ankylosis has not been ...

Biomechanical study of the stiffness of the femoral locking compression plate of an external fixator for lower tibial fractures

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2023
Background A locking compression plate (LCP) of the distal femur is used as an external fixator for lower tibial fractures. However, in clinical practice, the technique lacks a standardized approach and a strong biomechanical basis for its stability ...
