Biomechanical stability of a supra-acetabular pedicle screw Internal Fixation device (INFIX) vs External Fixation and plates for vertically unstable pelvic fractures [PDF]
Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2012Background We have recently developed a subcutaneous anterior pelvic fixation technique (INFIX). This internal fixator permits patients to sit, roll over in bed and lie on their sides without the cumbersome external appliances or their complications. The

Internal fixation treatments for intertrochanteric fracture: A systematic review and meta-Analysis of randomized evidence [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2015The relative effects of internal fixation strategies for intertrochanteric fracture after operation remain uncertain. We conducted a systematic review and meta-Analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to address this important issue.
