Novel Techniques in Orthopaedic Trauma: Role of External Fixators as Adjunct and Initial Fixation in Trauma
Abstract:
External fixation is a powerful tool in orthopaedic trauma surgery. Beyond serving as provisional or temporizing fixation, external fixation has utility as an intraoperative reduction tool, adjunct to internal fixation, and definitive fixation. It is important to summarize the indications, techniques, and considerations of various roles of external fixation in orthopaedic trauma.

Fractures: Bone Repair
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the...
