Design and biomechanical study of slide-poking external fixator for hip fracture

Journal of International Medical Research, 2020
Background Femoral head collapse and coxa vara lead to internal fixator failure in elderly patients with hip fracture. External fixator application is an optimal choice; however, the existing methods have many disadvantages.

In vivo measurement of bending stiffness in fracture healing [PDF]

, 2003
Background Measurement of the bending stiffness a healing fracture represents a valid variable in the assessment of fracture healing. However, currently available methods typically have high measurement errors, even for mild pin loosening.

Open Reduction and Intrafragmentary Compression Fixation with External Fixator (the Ichi-Fixator) Treatment of Distal Phalangeal Nonunion

Case Reports in Orthopedics, 2020
The nonunion of distal phalangeal communized fracture is relatively rare in hand fractures. However, if it occurred, the surgical treatment is quite difficult because of small piece of fragmentations.

An Alternative Site for Pin Placement in External Fixation of Pelvic Fractures: Lateral Posterior Pelvic External Fixator Surgical Technique

Frontiers in Surgery, 2021
Introduction: The application of an external fixator for unstable pelvic fractures is an important component of many resuscitation protocols. Moreover, certain pelvic fractures may be treated with an external fixator without requiring further internal ...

Rigidity of unilateral external fixators - A biomechanical study [PDF]

, 2011
Introduction: External fixation is the primary choice of temporary fracture stabilisation for specific polytrauma patients. Adequate initial fracture healing requires sufficient stability at the fracture site. The purpose of this study was to compare the
