Abstract:
In orthopedics, bone fixation imposes the use of implants in almost all cases. Over time, the materials used for the implant have evolved from inert materials to those that mimic the morphology of the bone. Therefore, bioabsorbable, biocompatible, and bioactive materials have emerged. Our study aimed to review the main types of implant materials used in orthopedics and present their advantages and drawbacks. We have searched for the pros and cons of the various types of material in the literature from over the last twenty years. The studied data show that consecrated metal alloys, still widely

Background: Distal radius fractures are among the most common fractures encountered in orthopedic practices. If treated operatively, most implants are retained after the fracture heals unless there is hardware failure, limitation of wrist motion, pain, infection, tendon rupture, or tenosynovitis. Complications have been reported during hardware removal, including not knowing the exact implant prior to its removal. If a patient presents for plate removal to a surgeon who did not perform the initial fracture fixation, having a preoperative visual aid can help the treating surgeon choose the righ

Introduction: Distal tibiofibular syndesmosis (DTFS) injuries in ankle fractures are conventionally treated by DTFS fixation with stabilizing screws.

Abstract:
Chapter 27 discusses fracture fixation. Although many fractures are managed nonoperatively, others require various forms of surgical intervention. Fracture fixation can be conservative or surgical. The goal is to stabilize the fractured bone, enable fast healing, and return early mobility and function of the injured extremity. Orthopedic hardware permits stabilization of the fractured bone, expediting healing and early mobility. Percutaneous pins and wires can be used to apply traction to a fracture. External and internal fixation are used when more advanced operative intervention is required and encompass external fixator devices, pins/wires, screws, plates, and intramedullary nails/rods. Hardware is unfortunately susceptible to complication, including loosening, migration, fracture, and infection.
