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 ...

A novel fixation method for panfacial fracture using an Ilizarov-type external fixator

Trauma Case Reports, 2019
In general, internal plate fixation is mainly performed in order to reduce multiple facial bone fractures and rarely uses an external fixator. Although it would be ideal to successfully achieve or preserve the occlusal relationship of the upper and lower

Retrospective clinical outcomes in the definitive treatment of high-energy tibial diaphyseal fractures using hexapod external fixator versus monolateral external fixator

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2022
Background External fixation, which can preserve the biomechanical microenvironment of fracture healing, plays an important role in managing the high-energy fractures with poor surrounding soft tissues.

Designing composite external fixator for intertrochanteric fracture treatment based on Vietnamese femur morphological parameters

Russian Open Medical Journal, 2021
Aim — 60 Vietnamese dry femurs were studied to design a carbon composite external fixator for intertrochanteric fracture. Its mechanical strength was evaluated. Material and Methods — The femurs were measured by standard goniometers.

External Fixator for War Purposes: The CMC Fixator [PDF]

Military Medicine, 1999
More than 75% of all injuries in modern wars are localized on the extremities, and more than one-third of these injuries are accompanied by bone fracture. Application of an external fixator is one of the basic procedures in the treatment of war fractures.
