Fracture Fixation and Implants

Use of 3D-printed osteotomy and reduction guides may improve the accuracy of correction of femoral alignment.
This report provides evidence that MIPO is a compelling alternative to open reduction and internal fixation in the treatment of various humeral fractures.
The use of a locking plate to improve overall success rate, in these fractures, remains to be confirmed clinically.
Construct D, with OrthoFiber #5, passed straight through the toggle rod eyelet, may provide superior stability and resistance to fatigue failure to toggle-in repairs of coxofemoral luxations.
The results suggested that closed, fluoroscopic-assisted reduction is a proficient and efficient means of stabilising acute unicondylar humeral fractures.
Bilateral twisted string-of-pearls locking plates can be associated with a satisfactory result in treating lumbosacral fracture-luxation.
The use of 3 short LCP should be considered as a strategy to facilitate pancarpal or partial carpal arthrodesis
Preoperative planning and postoperative assessment of TPLO should take into consideration the predisposing factors identified in this study to prevent TTF.
