Abstract:
Progress has been made in the treatment of long bone shaft fra ctures in recent years with its therapeutic focus on the mechanical priorities o f the disorder shifting to the biological ones. ‘Biological internal fixation’ is a new concept. ‘Flexible fixation’ has been recommended to promote forma tion of callus, and precise indirect reduction to reduce operative lesion. Inspi ring results have been achieved in the internal fixation systems and external fi xator which resulted from the clinical application of the new concept. The inter nal fixation systems include interlocking intramedllary nail, point contact fixa tor(PC-Fix), limited contact-dynamic compression plate(LC-DCP), bridging plat e(BP), Less Invasive Stabilization System(LISS), locking compression plate(LCP), and so on.
