Internal Fixation of Osteoporotic Fractures

Current Osteoporosis Reports, 2014
Osteoporosis leads to bone fragility and increased risk of fracture. Despite advances in diagnosis and treatment, the prevalence continues to rise. Osteoporotic fracture treatment has a unique set of difficulties related to poor bone quality and traditional approaches, and implants may not perform well.

Successful Internal Fixation

1981
The most important prerequisites are anatomic reduction and stability. Anatomic reduction is particularly important if internal fixation is achieved by interfragmental compression, i.e., in fixation by plates and screws.

Absorbable Biologically Based Internal Fixation

Clinics in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery, 2015
Absorbable devices for use in internal fixation have advanced over the years to become reliable and cost-effective alternatives to metallic hardware. In the past, biodegradable fixation involved a laborious implantation process, and induced osteolysis and inflammatory reactions.

Transiliac Internal Fixator

2017
The transiliac internal fixator is a posterior bridging stabilization device and an alternative to posterior bridging plate osteosynthesis and transsacral bar fixation. The principle of this technique is to insert one pedicle screw in each ilium and connect them with a transverse rod.

Screw Fixation Versus Hemiarthroplasty for Nondisplaced Femoral Neck Fractures in Elderly Patients: A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. American volume, 2019
Background: Elderly patients with a displaced femoral neck fracture treated with hip arthroplasty may have better function than those treated with internal fixation. We hypothesized that hemiarthroplasty would be superior to screw fixation with regard to

Internal Fixation with Knodt's Rods

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1986
Knodt's rods are an effective distraction internal fixator for promoting fusion for lumbar spine surgery. The chief disadvantage in 92 cases was a removal rate of about one third. The 93% fusion rate, and instant mobilization of the patient are reasonable trade-offs for the disadvantages of a second operation for removal of the rods.

Biological internal fixation of fractures

Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery, 1990
Trauma centers treat more and more patients who have sustained multiple injuries during high energy accidents. The techniques of internal fixation of such fractures may be dictated by the concomitant soft tissue trauma, rather than by the bony injury. Three stages of soft tissue injuries are recognised: Stage I delineates compromised soft tissues which

Combined External Fixation and Internal Fixation

2014
Fractures with severe comminution of the joint surface and with little metaphyseal support to the volar rim fragments may benefit from a volar buttress plate in addition to ligamentotaxis served by an external fixator. The most severe, comminuted fractures however should be subject to augmented external fixation.

The AO Spinal Internal Fixator

Spine, 1989
The AO spinal internal fixation system uses 5.0 mm diameter transpedicular Schanz screws with 7.0 mm diameter fully threaded stainless steel rods. Originally developed for the treatment of thoracolumbar and lumbar spine fractures, it can be used for a variety of spinal disorders.

INTERNAL FIXATION OF SCAPHOID FRACTURES

Hand Clinics, 1997
Scaphoid fracture fixation is indicated in certain acute situations and for scaphoid nonunion. Internal fixation requires an understanding of the distinctive scaphoid anatomy with relation to its shape, blood supply, fracture healing, and radiographic evaluation.
