Analysis of Biomechanical Characteristics of External Fixators with Steel and Composite Frames during Anterior–Posterior Bending

Applied Sciences, 2023
This paper presents a comparative analysis of the biomechanical characteristics of an external fixator with a frame made of two different materials (stainless steel and composite material) during anterior–posterior bending.

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.

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 ...

Comparison between external locking plate fixation and conventional external fixation for extraarticular proximal tibial fractures: a finite element analysis

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2022
Background Good clinical outcomes for locking plates as an external fixator to treat tibial fractures have been reported. However, external locking plate fixation is still generally rarely performed.

A comparative study of variable angle volar plate and bridging external fixator with K-wire augmentation in comminuted distal radius fractures

Chinese Journal of Traumatology, 2021
Purpose: Comminuted intraarticular distal radial fractures are difficult to treat conservatively and require operative treatment. This study compared the functional outcomes between variable angle volar plating and external fixator with K-wire ...

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.

Surgical Management of Distal Tibia Fracture: Towards An Outcome-based Treatment Algorithm [PDF]

Malaysian Orthopaedic Journal, 2020
INTRODUCTION: Distal tibia fractures are frequently associated with an extensive soft tissue injury which then leads to a higher risk of complications such as infection, non-union and eventually poor overall outcome.

Managing the meniscus part I—Anatomy, biomechanics, and treatment strategies for the atraumatic meniscus tear

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this article is to serve as the first of a two‐part review on the meniscus; in this review, we will establish the background on anatomy and pathogenesis of the meniscus, as well as the effect of the meniscus on native knee kinematics and function.
