Internal Fixation of Osteoporotic Bone
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2018Osteoporosis is one of the costliest conditions managed by orthopaedic surgeons. This condition, which is characterized by decreased bone density and thinning of cortical bone, is strongly influenced by complex signaling in both the hormonal and mechanical environments.

Electronic Physician, 2015
Background: Distal radius fractures (DRFs) are much more prone to malunion than unstable extra-articular fractures. There is no clear consensus concerning what the proper treatment should be, and the best approach to use for displaced DRFs remains ...

INTERNAL FIXATION FOR LUMBOSACRAL FUSION
The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 1944By the placement of screws through the lateral articulations, rigid internal fixation can be secured in the lumbar spine-fusion operation. The position in which the joint is to be ankylosed can be accurately controlled, and the necessity for prolonged immobihization in plaster is eliminated.

Injury, 1980
This is the second edition of the Manual der Osteosynthese by the Swiss association AO group. The 1969 edition of this manual was their first complete treatise on the principles of internal fixation. It presented detailed techniques of compression and medullary nailing first in terms of the apparatus and mechanical devices and then as these applied to ...

Internal Fixation with Knodt's Rods
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1986Knodt'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.

Successful Internal Fixation [PDF]
, 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.

Finite element analysis of distraction osteogenesis with a new extramedullary internal distractor.
Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical EngineeringDistraction osteogenesis (DO) is a bone regenerative maneuver, which is conventionally done with external fixators and, more recently, with telescopic intramedullary nails.

INTERNAL FIXATION OF SCAPHOID FRACTURES
Hand Clinics, 1997Scaphoid 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.

The AO Spinal Internal Fixator
Spine, 1989The 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 Osteoporotic Fractures
Current Osteoporosis Reports, 2014Osteoporosis 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.
