Abstract: | The small external fixator can be used in the treatment of injuries of the wrist and the distal forearm.This fixator is indicated especially when an unstable fracture needs to be treated, when the bone concerned is affected by osteoporosis in an elderly patient,and in the early treatment of polytraumatized patients with severe soft tissue injuries.For reduction of the fracture we prefer the modular three-tube technique, which is very gentle on the soft tissue; in addition we use the advantages of ligamentotaxis.Depending on the fracture type,we use the small external fixator alone or in association with an internal osteosynthesis.With scrupulous followup checks in the outpatient clinic loosening of the Schanz screws and infection around them are very rare. |
