Abstract:
From unsatisfactory results in fractures in the hand treated with K-wires or other osteosynthesis we felt the need to develop new material for osteosynthesis. Our goal was to simplify the operative procedure, to enable exact anatomical reposition to avoid or reduce splinting in order to prevent adhesions and secondary operations. Further more to be able to reduce and stabilise small fragments. After more than 4 years of experience with our material in more than 200 osteosynthesis we can conclude, that our goal has been accomplished to a great deal. We would like to present this procedure.
