Purpose The optimal surgical procedure for displaced extra-articular distal tibia fractures
remains debated at present. The objective of this systematic review is to compare the …

Purpose: To assess the difference between preformed anatomically shaped osteosynthesis
plates and patient-specific implants versus conventional flat plates for the treatment of …

Mechano-regulation plays a crucial role in bone healing and involves complex cellular
events. In this study, we investigate the change of mechanical microenvironment of stem …

Interfragmentary movement (IFM) at the fracture site plays an important role in fracture
healing, particularly during its early stage, via influencing the mechanical microenvironment …

Introduction Minimal invasive plate osteosynthesis in simple distal meta or diaphyseal tibia
fractures can be applied using absolute (lag screw and neutralisation plate; LSN) or relative …

Purpose The aim of our study was to assess the outcome of locking plate fixation of distal
tibia fractures and evaluate which surgical approach and method of plate fixation is related …

Designing weight-bearing exercises for patients with lower-limb bone fractures is
challenging and requires a systematic approach that accounts for patient-specific loading …

Introduction Minimal invasive plating (MIPO) techniques for humeral shaft fractures appear
to have fewer complications and higher union rates compared to open reduction and …

Background: Locking plates are widely used in fracture fixation, mainly for meta-diaphyseal
fractures, comminuted fractures, fractures with a critical-size bone defect, periprosthetic …

Background First metatarsophalangeal joint (MTP-1) arthrodesis is a commonly performed
procedure in the treatment of disorders of the great toe. Since the incidence of revision after …
