PURPOSE To evaluate treatment outcomes of minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) for distal femoral fractures in 31 patients. METHODS 22 male and 9 female consecutive patients aged 21 to 65 (mean, 42) years underwent minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis using a locking compression plate (LCP) for distal femoral fractures. The causes of injury were vehicular accidents (n=24), falls ...

Unresolved issue is improving of the osteosynthesis extraarticular fractures distal humerus. Search for a simplified method biological fixation, which assumes, with low trauma, to ensure stable fixation fragments and movements in elbow joint early postoperative period. Objective.To carry out comparative analysis bone displacement humerus extra-articular fractures, stabilized by extraosseous tra...

Locking reconstruction plates have led to significant improvement in osteosynthesis and graft anchorage in mandibular reconstruction following the free fibula osteocutaneous flap. Plate extrusion is the most common complication associated with mandibular reconstruction, occurring in approximately 20% to 48% of cases; often necessitating plate removal once the bone flap has united to the mandibl...
