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.

A model for evaluating the biomechanics of rib fracture fixation [PDF]

Clinical Biomechanics, 2020
High rates of morbidity and mortality following flail chest rib fractures are well publicized. Standard of care has been supportive mechanical ventilation, but serious complications have been reported. Internal rib fixation has shown improvements in pulmonary function, clinical outcomes, and decreased mortality.

Multicentre prospective cohort study of nonoperative versus operative treatment for flail chest and multiple rib fractures after blunt thoracic trauma: study protocol

BMJ Open, 2019
Introduction A trend has evolved towards rib fixation for flail chest although evidence is limited. Little is known about rib fixation for multiple rib fractures without flail chest.

Recent advances in rib fracture fixation

Journal of Thoracic Disease, 2019
As a means of treating rib fractures, surgical stabilization of rib fractures (SSRF) has been carried out sporadically for nearly 100 years. However, with the recent advent of new materials and technologies suitable for SSRF, the developmental rate and data concerning SSRF have increased greatly.
