Internal fixator for use in the mouse

Injury, 2009
Knockout techniques enable us to expand our knowledge about bonerepair processes. Since they require the use of mice, such studies necessitate the development of special technologies. Mechano-biological reactions play a determining role in fracture healing, and therefore controlled conditions of stability are essential.

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.

Resorbable polymers for internal fixation

Clinical Materials, 1992
Bone fractures are usually fixed with metallic internal and/or external fixation devices. Such devices have to be removed from the implantation site, once the bone fracture is healed. Metallic devices may also corrode in vivo releasing ions into the tissues. An ideal internal fixation device should allow adequate fracture fixation, immediate recovery

Indications for Internal Fixation

1989
The fracture, of course, is the first and most important indication for functionally stable internal fixation with the object of restoring the form and function of the mandible, relieving pain, and avoiding late sequelae. Additional considerations such as primary bone union, decreased hospital time, and an earlier return to work are important but are ...

Principles of Internal Fixation

2005
The principal mechanical function of bone is to act as a supporting structure and transmit load. The loads which bone has to withstand are those of pure compression, those of bending, which result in one cortex being loaded in tension and the other in compression, and those of torque, or twisting. Bone is strongest in compression and weakest in tension.

Internal Fixation in the Osteoporotic Spine

Spine, 1997
The presence of osteoporosis in patients who are candidates for spinal surgery can affect preoperative planning. These patients may not need instrumentation for a successful surgical result, but if use of instrumentation is indicated because of instability or deformity, certain principles should be observed.
