Internal Fracture Fixation in Patients With Osteoporosis
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2003Because of the decreased holding power of plate-and-screw fixation in osteoporotic bone fractures, internal fixation can have a high failure rate, ranging from 10% to 25%. Screws placed into cortical bone have better resistance to pullout than do those placed into adjacent trabecular bone.

Internal Fixation for the Transforaminal Sacral Fracture
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1996The mechanical stability of alternate forms of internal fixation of the transforaminal sacral fracture were compared. A transforaminal sacral fracture was made in each of 6 fresh-frozen cadaveric pelvic specimens. Implants compared for fixation included: a single and 2 fully threaded iliosacral screws inserted through the posterior ilium and anchored ...

Internal fixation of fractures of the femoral neck
The American Journal of Surgery, 1949Abstract 1. 1. The historical development of internal fixation of fractures through the femoral neck and trochanters is reviewed. 2. 2. The anatomy of the femoral head, neck and trochanters pertinent to internal fixation is discussed. 3. 3. A successful technic for the Smith-Petersen nailing is described. 4. 4. The handling within the

Strength of internal fixation for calcaneal fractures
Clinical Biomechanics, 1998OBJECTIVE: To compare the strength of two types of fixation method for calcaneal fractures. DESIGN: A biomechanical testing examined the stability of 12 fractured calcaneal specimens fixed with two different methods. BACKGROUND: Though anatomic reduction and internal fixation for the treatment of intra-articular fractures of the calcaneus has become ...

Internal fixation of forearm fractures in children
Acta Orthopaedica Scandinavica, 1987Fourteen children with severely displaced diaphyseal fractures of both bones of the forearm treated with open reduction and internal fixation were reviewed; these operations represented 9 per cent of all the diaphyseal forearm fractures in children during a 9-year period.

Minimal Internal Fixation of Tibial Fractures
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1975Flexible 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

INTERNAL FIXATION FOR FRACTURES AND DISLOCATIONS OF THE PELVIS
The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1953In two types of pelvic injuries—fractures of the iliac wing and separation of the symphysis pubis—internal fixation with stainless-steel pins has given satisfactiory results. This technique would appear to be easier and less time-consuming than the use of other types of fixation.

The treatment of metastatic fractures with internal fixation
The American Journal of Surgery, 1959Abstract The indications for, and the technique of, internal fixation of pathologic fractures due to metastatic cancer have been reviewed. The benefit of such treatment to the patient and the socioeconomic factors relating to this treatment have been discussed in detail.
