Abstract Purpose of Review Fracture fixation aims to provide stability and promote healing,
but remains challenging in unstable and osteoporotic fractures with increased risk of …

Clinical findings, manufacturer instructions, and surgeon's preferences often dictate the
implantation of distal femur locked plates (DFLPs), but healing problems and implant failures …

Background High shear force is a major factor detrimental to the healing of vertical femoral
neck fractures. In addition to firm fixation, reduction quality is crucial for postoperative …

Aims In this study, we aimed to explore surgical variations in the Femoral Neck System
(FNS) used for stable fixation of Pauwels type III femoral neck fractures. Methods Finite …

Background: Decreasing the stiffness of locked plating constructs can promote natural
fracture healing by controlled dynamization of the fracture. This biomechanical study …

Proximal femur fracture fixation with intramedullary nailing relies on stability at the fracture
site and integrity of the fixation construct to achieve union. The biomechanics that dictate …

Abstract Background and Objectives Knee flexion causes a certain amount of misalignment
and relative movement of the fractured ends of the femur fracture, and if the flexion angle is …

To achieve optimal flexibility in biological internal fracture fixation two questions require
clarification: which biomechanical parameter controls healing and what are the boundary …

Locking plates have led to important changes in bone fracture management, allowing
flexible biological fracture fixation based on the principle of an internal fixator. The technique …

Abstract Purpose of Review This review discusses imaging modalities for fracture repair
assessment, with an emphasis on pragmatic clinical and translational use, best practices for …
