Biomechanics of Fracture Fixation
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 2020This article reviews the biomechanical parameters of fracture repair that influence construct stiffness and strength. The stiffness influences the relative motion between fracture fragments, known as gap strain, and, thus, callus development. Construct strength determines the magnitude and number of load events that the repair can resist before failure.

Biomechanics of the Ilizarov Fixator for Fracture Fixation
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1992Compression, distraction, and torsion stiffness of the Ilizarov external fixator was measured in two fracture models in autopsy specimens of tibia and fibula. A transverse model was tested in six frame constructions with the osteotomy site preloaded in four different positions.

External Fixation of Wrist Fractures
Orthopedics, 1984ABSTRACT: One hundred and twenty-six wrist fractures treated by external fixation were reviewed, with an average followup of six months (range: one to 48 months). Most of the fractures were unstable. A radius-second metacarpal standard half-frame was used in 93.6%.

Biological fixation of subtrochanteric fractures by external fixation
Injury, 1996Fifty-one subtrochanteric fractures have been stabilized by external fixation over the last 9 years. Union occurred in all types of fractures, usually within 6 months. Soft tissue interposition led to non-union in three patients. Refracture in one patient and significant limb-length discrepancy in two patients was seen.

Internal fixation of mandibular fractures
British Journal of Plastic Surgery, 1954ADVANCES or changes in surgical endeavour are often slow to influence practice in the face of complacent acceptance of well-tried and routine procedures. It would seem that modern methods of open reduction and internal fixation of any fracture which presents difficulties of reduction or retention are not as generally appreciated and applied in relation

Miniplate fixation of zygomatic fractures
Head & Neck, 1991AbstractThe availability and application of miniplate systems for the repair of displaced zygomatic fractures may effect commonly accepted guidelines for fixation of these injuries. A retrospective review of 20 patients at New York University‐Bellevue Medical Center was conducted to further delineate issues concerning surgical repair and fixation.

Impact of Infection on Fracture Fixation
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2016Surgical site infection can be a devastating complication that results in significant morbidity in patients who undergo operative fixation of fractures. Reducing the rate of infection and wound complications in high-risk trauma patients by giving early effective antibiotics, improving soft tissue management, and using antiseptic techniques is a common ...

Arthroscopy‐assisted fracture fixation
Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, 2010AbstractPurposeThe purpose of this article was to systematically analyze the results of published studies in the literature which evaluated the use of arthroscopically assisted techniques in intra‐articular fracture fixation.MethodsPublished investigations to date were analyzed by classifying them according to joints that were involved with intra ...

Abstract Chapter 27 discusses fracture fixation. Although many fractures are managed nonoperatively, others require various forms of surgical intervention. Fracture fixation can be conservative or surgical. The goal is to stabilize the fractured bone, enable fast healing, and return early mobility and function of the injured extremity ...

Comparison of Fixation of Spinal Fractures
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1980Mechanical failure was induced in cadaver spines by applying flexion, extension, and lateral bending loads with continuous recordings of moment and rotation. Each spine was then stabilized with Harrington distraction rods, compression rods, and titanium mesh in sequence, and tested in a similar manner.
