Fracture Biology, Biomechanics, and Internal Fixation

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 1996
The success of orthopedic surgery in ruminants is directly related to the surgeon's knowledge and understanding of bone physiology and mechanics. The relationship of the macro and micro structure and function of bone as it relates to fracture physiology and repair is discussed.

Internal and External Fixation of Fractures in Children

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1980
We have illustrated instances in which open reduction with internal or external fixation should be used in the care of fractures in children. These methods should be used when closed reduction fails or in other circumstances in which they are the initial treatment of choice.

Internal Fixation of Pelvic Ring Fractures

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1989
The orthopedic care of unstable pelvic fractures requires reduction and stabilization in order to promote union in a satisfactory position and provide a satisfactory clinical result. The results of three treatment techniques, skeletal traction and/or pelvic sling, anterior frame external fixation, and internal fixation, were evaluated over a four-year ...

INTERNAL FIXATION OF FRACTURES OF THE ULNA IN THE HORSE

Australian Veterinary Journal, 1982
SUMMARY Surgical repair of ulnar fracture was attempted in 7 horses. Of 6 animals in which tension band plates were used, 4 recovered, one was killed after implant failure and one died of respiratory failure during post‐operative recovery. The treatment of one horse with a Steinman Pin and figure‐8 tension band wire was unsuccessful.One horse with ...

The biocompatibility of materials for internal fixation of fractures

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research, 1978
AbstractSurgically produced fractures of rabbit tibiae were internally stabilized with in tramedullary rods of stainless steel (316LVM), titanium (6A1,4V), polyacetal (Delrin), and polyamide (Nylon 101). Periodic radiographs were taken until sacrifice at 16 weeks after fracture.

INTERNAL FIXATION FOR UNSTABLE ANKLE FRACTURES

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1964
Two hundred and thirty-two ankle fractures were treated in the orthopaedic department of the Royal Portsmouth Hospital between 1959 and 1960. Seventy-one fractures treated by internal fixation with screws have been seen at follow-up examination. Results show that open reduction, secure and accurate internal fixation and early movement without plaster ...

COMPLICATIONS OF INTERNAL FIXATION IN PAEDIATRIC FRACTURES

ANZ Journal of Surgery, 2007
Background:  Most displaced fractures in children can be managed by closed treatment. Internal fixation of fractures is sometimes required to achieve satisfactory reduction with certain fractures. The aim of this study was to document the rate of complications associated with internal fixation of fractures in the paediatric age group.Methods:  A ...

Minimal Internal Fixation of Tibial Fractures

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1975
Flexible wire and small pins cause minimal disturbance of osseous blood supply, and introduce minimal foreign material into the wound. Supplemental support by a plaster cast or by traction is required, but the external support can generally be discontinued early for joint mobilization. Several simple auxillary fixation devices extend the usefulness of
