Background: The concept of reverse dynamization involves modifying the mechanical
environment surrounding a fracture to influence the healing response. Initially, less rigid …

Introduction Tibial fractures are common long bone injuries, often surgically fixed with
intramedullary nails. Modern intramedullary tibial nails allow for two different fixation modes …

Trotz modernster therapeutischer Möglichkeiten bleibt je nach Frakturentität und initialer
Versorgung unverändert in über 10% der Fälle die knöcherne Durchbauung eines …

Orthopaedic surgeons routinely assess the biomechanical environment of a fracture to
create a fixation construct that provides the appropriate amount of stability in efforts to …

Aims: The aims of this study were as follows: first, to determine whether the motors
performed the programmed initial and residual schedules and, second, to identify …

A 19-year-old morbidly obese man presented with infected nonunion of femoral shaft
