Fracture Fixation and Implants

The increase in plate strain encountered with a long working length can be overcome by the use of a pin of 30-40% intramedullary diameter
An effective treatment method for fractures with a radial width smaller than 5.5 mm.
A successful procedure in a case of multi-drug resistant periprosthetic infection
When bicortical screw placement is not possible, maximizing monocortical screw length may optimize fixation stability for distal humeral fractures
High occurrence of complications associated with calcaneal fracture stabilization in these patients
A CBS screw placed in lag fashion provides stiffer fixation than an HCS screw, although both screws provide similar anatomical reduction and yield strength to condylar fracture fixation
The bending resulted in tibial valgus deformation in this series of patients
A high rate, with the majority of complications occur intra-operatively or perioperatively
Although LPA has shown promise as an osteoinductive agent in research, its performance as a bone graft substitute, as utilized in this study, is unsupported
