Infection after fracture fixation [PDF]
Infection after fracture fixation is a feared complication in orthopaedic surgery leading to poor bone healing and loss of function. Early detection is essential and interdisciplinary care is mandatory. Eradication of infection is only possible through combined surgical and antibiotic treatment.

Biomechanics of Osteoporotic Fracture Fixation [PDF]
Abstract Purpose of Review Fractures of osteoporotic bone in elderly individuals need special attention. This manuscript reviews the current strategies to provide sufficient fracture fixation stability with a particular focus on fractures that frequently occur in elderly individuals with osteoporosis and require full ...

Biomechanical Concepts for Fracture Fixation [PDF]
Application of the correct fixation construct is critical for fracture healing and long-term stability; however, it is a complex issue with numerous significant factors. This review describes a number of common fracture types and evaluates their currently available fracture fixation constructs.

Numerical simulation of callus healing for optimization of fracture fixation stiffness. [PDF]
The stiffness of fracture fixation devices together with musculoskeletal loading defines the mechanical environment within a long bone fracture, and can be quantified by the interfragmentary movement.
