Fractures stabilized with MIPO should heal in a similar manner to fractures stabilized with external skeletal fixation applied in a closed fashion, but would require less patient and fixator care in the post-operative convalescence period. (vin.com)
An external fixator brings many advantages like a rigid fixation in a precarious form of immobilization especially in open fractures in which traction or casting or plates or rods are unable to be applied because of risk of infection or the loss of an extremity. (amhe.org)
So, an external fixation is a surgical way to stabilize a fracture with rods screwed into bone and exiting the body attached to a stabilizing structure on the outside of the body. (amhe.org)
An external fixation is an alternative to an internal fixation to stabilize bone and soft tissues at a distance from the operative field. (amhe.org)
