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, 2012 Background 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

Distal tibial pilon fractures (AO/OTA type B, and C) treated with the external skeletal and minimal internal fixation method [PDF]
Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2013 Background/Aim. Distal tibial pilon fractures include extra-articular fractures of the tibial metaphysis and the more severe intra-articular tibial pilon fractures. There is no universal method for treating distal tibial pilon fractures.

Evaluation of Results of Open Reduction and Internal Fixation (ORIF) of Fracture of Distal End of Femur with Intra-Articular Extension [PDF]
Malaysian Orthopaedic Journal, 2021 INTRODUCTION: Fractures of the distal femur account for 0.4% of all fractures. They involve about 7% of all femur fractures, with bimodal age distribution, commonly occur during high-velocity trauma of motor vehicle accidents in the younger group of ...

Comparison of Outcomes of Operatively Treated Bicondylar Tibial Plateau Fractures by External Fixation and Internal Fixation [PDF]
Malaysian Orthopaedic Journal, 2012 The outcome of bicondylar tibial plateau fractures treated with either external fixation (35 patients) or internal fixation (24 patients) was reviewed. Outcome measures included the Rasmussen score, clinical complications, development of osteoarthritis ...

External fixation combined with limited internal fixation in the treatment of pilon tibia fractures [PDF]
Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2007 Background/Aim. Intraarticular fractures of the tibial plafond (pilon fractures) belong to the group of most severe fractures. They are usually caused by high-energy trauma and frequently associated with a marked soft-tissue damage.

Biomechanical analysis of internal fixation system stability for tibial plateau fractures
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023 Background: Complex bone plateau fractures have been treated with bilateral plate fixation, but previous research has overemphasized evaluating the effects of internal fixation design, plate position, and screw orientation on fracture fixation stability,

If we should remove internal fixation devices for rib fractures?
Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2023 Background Internal fixation for rib fractures has been widely carried out worldwide, and its surgical efficacy has been recognized. However, there is still controversy about whether implant materials need to be removed.
