1From the Department of orthopedic, No.2 people's hospital of Fuyang city, Fuyang city, Anhui province, China (Dr. Li, Dr. Zhao, and Dr. Zhuang); the Department of Pre hospital emergency, Chongqing Emergency Medical Center, Chongqing, China (Dr. Liu); the Department of orthopedic, People's hospital of Fuyang city, Fuyang city, Anhui province, China (Dr. Yu); and the Department of Orthopaedics, Southwest Hospital, Army Medical University, Chongqing, The People's Republic of China (Dr. Xie).
Background:
The main aim of this article was to propose a new concept of minimally invasive surgery for treating limb fractures, named as second to minimally invasive plates osteosynthesis (STMIPO).
Methods:
We have described the STMIPO technique in a step-wise and standardized manner based on our findings from a study involving six patients treated at our institution. All patients with fracture achieved satisfactory outcomes.
Results:
Ours clinical trials have shown that the STMIPO technique can be successfully applied in various limb fractures, including fibula fractures, tibial fractures, femur fractures, humerus fractures, ulna fractures, and radius fractures. All fracture patients achieved satisfactory outcomes.
Conclusion:
As a new minimally invasive technology, the STMIPO technique can serve as an alternative solution for fractures that are difficult to reduce with minimally invasive plates osteosynthesis (MIPO).
