Principles of Stable Internal Fixation

, 1987
The results of internal fixation can be adversely affected by implant failure before union takes place. The survival of an internal fixation device depends upon load transfer from fragment to fragment. Techniques that do not provide such a load sharing between implant and bone will lead to failure of the implant. For example, absence of contact between

Thoracoscopic internal fixation, open surgical internal fixation, and conservative treatment of rib fractures: differences in postoperative rehabilitation and chest volume (a randomized controlled trial)

Background: Currently, the standard treatment for multiple rib fractures is still under debate. This study explores the efficacy of three treatments (thoracoscopic internal fixation, open surgical internal fixation and conservative treatment) for ...

INTERNAL FIXATION FOR UNSTABLE ANKLE FRACTURES

, 1964
Two hundred and thirty-two ankle fractures were treated in the orthopaedic department of the Royal Portsmouth Hospital between 1959 and 1960. Seventy-one fractures treated by internal fixation with screws have been seen at follow-up examination. Results

THE RESULTS OF EARLY AND DELAYED INTERNAL FIXATION OF FRACTURES OF THE SHAFT OF THE FEMUR

, 1964
1. The results in 211 fractures of the shaft of the femur in adults treated by internal fixation have been reviewed. 2. A comparison has been made between the effects of early internal fixation within the first six days of injury and delayed fixation.

Fracture Neck of Femur fixed by Biplane Double Support Screw Fixation (BDSF) Technique; A Case Series of 12 Cases

Journal of Surgical Specialties and Rural Practice
Internal fixation of femoral neck fractures has been always debatable. Parallel screws though are a frequent modality of fixation, they have a poor outcome in 46% of cases clinically.

Open reduction and internal fixation compared to closed reduction and external fixation in distal radial fractures A randomized study of 50 patients

, 2009
Background and purpose In unstable distal radial fractures that are impossible to reduce or to maintain in reduced position, the treatment of choice is operation. The type of operation and the choice of implant, however, is a matter of discussion.

Application of an optimisation algorithm to configure an internal fixation device [PDF]

, 2010
Fractures of long bones are sometimes treated using various types of fracture fixation devices including internal plate fixators. These are specialised plates which are used to bridge the fracture gap(s) whilst anatomically aligning the bone fragments ...
