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.

To The Editor: We read with interest “A Prospective, Randomized Trial Comparing the Limited Contact Dynamic Compression Plate with the Point Contact Fixator for Forearm Fractures” (2003;85:2343-8), by Leung and Chow, a well-executed study with good numbers and adequate follow-up. It was not clear to us why the decision was made to remove the devices

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

Injury, 1969
Rigidity in internal splintage is defined as the number of in.-lb. of bending or torsional moment required to produce 1° of either angulation or twist at the fracture site. Values are found for various types of plate or nail. The effects of compression systems have not been evaluated.

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 ...

External Fixation of Pertrochanteric Fractures
Osteosynthesis and Trauma Care, 2005Sliding hip screw fixation is the most common surgical treatment for pertrochanteric fractures. Intramedullary hip screw fixation is another popular surgical option; however, for either sliding hip screw or intramedullary hip screw fixation, mechanical complications such as lag screw cut-out are frequent. Furthermore with these fixation techniques, the

BMJ, 1971 Percutaneous Fixation of Scaphoid Fractures
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2007Recent advances in techniques and implants have led to renewed interest in percutaneous screw fixation of acute scaphoid fractures. The closed (cast) treatment of acute scaphoid fractures generally has good outcome, with bony union resulting; however, closed treatment can result in delayed union, nonunion, malunion, cast- induced joint stiffness, and ...
