Infection after fracture fixation [PDF]

open access: yesEFORT Open Reviews, 2019
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.

Biomechanical Concepts for Fracture Fixation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 2015
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.
