Advanced Fracture Fixation: Ensuring Swift Recovery and Mobility
Fracture fixation is the stabilisation of a fractured bone that enables the fast healing of the bone and thus the return to early mobility and full function of the injured extremity. Fractures can be treated conservatively by immobilising the bone with a plaster cast, while the surrounding soft tissues like the muscle, connecting tissues, and periosteum, along with the adjacent bones, will provide enough support and stability to keep the bones in reasonable alignment while healing occurs.
Some of the fractures need stabilisation surgery with the help of external or internal fixation devices.
External Fixation
Internal Fixation
Internal fixation on the other hand refers to the method of physically reconnecting the bones, with use of special screws, plates, rods, wires, or nails that the surgeon places inside the bones to fix them in the correct place. Most of the internal fixation devices need not be removed and can be left in situation lifetime as the implants used now a days are of supreme quality made up of titanium alloy ( MRI compatible & doesn’t come under any scanner).
