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

Faulty external fixation [PDF]
National Journal of Clinical Orthopaedics, 2021 External fixation a common method for treatment of open fractures with different degrees caused by many mechanisms. It is very vital in case of stabilization of fractures of poly-traumatized patients. Perfection in the fixation and good stability of the fixator will affect the outcome of treatment and induce early fracture healing.

External fixator configurations in tibia fractures: 1D optimization and 3D analysis comparison [PDF]
, 2014 The use of external fixation devices in orthopedic surgery is very common in open tibial fractures. A properly applied fixator may improve the healing process while one improperly applied might delay the healing process.
