1 Operative technique for external fixation Thomas Beck Allgemeine und Unfallchirurgie Spitalzentrum Oberwallis

2 Operative technique of external fixation Basic principles Operative technique & Introduction to the workshop

3 Basic principles Indications for externeal fixators: Open fractures Damage control surgery (polytrauma) Closed fractures with severe soft tissue injury Periarticular fractures Pelvic fractures Osteomyelitis / infection Callus distraction Fractures in children Correction of malunion

4 Basic principles Force translation

5 Basic principles Force translation

6 Basic principles Force translation Relative stability

7 Basic principles Pins Rods Clamps

8 Basic principles

9 Basic principles

10 Basic principles

11 Basic principles

12 Basic principles Fixator types: unilateral

13 Basic principles Fixator types: bilateral

14 Basic principles Fixator types: Ring fixator

15 Basic principles Fixator types: Monotube fixator

16 Basic principles Fixator types: Hybrid fixator

17 Basic principles Fixator types: Wallis frame

18 Basic principles Fixator types: hinged

19 Basic principles Stability factors: Pins - Pin diameter: stiffness = f (r 4 ) - Pin diameter: 30% of bone diameter - Bicortical pin insertion - Central pin insertion - Pin paralell to fx plane

20 Basic principles Stability factors: Pins Pin direction convergent Pins per fragment

21 Basic principles Stability factors: Rods Rod type (steel or carbon) Rod diameter

22 Basic principles Stability factors: Clamps Is the weakest link Tube to tube more stable than pin to tube

23 Basic principles Stability factors: the frame <

24 Basic principles Stability factors: the frame < <

25 Basic principles Stability factors: the frame A Bone to Rod CLOSE C B Pin to Pin WIDE B C Pin to Fx NEAR A DOUBLE BAR

26 Basic principles Complications: - Pin track infections - Secondary dislocations - Material failure

27 Basic principles Summary: Easy and quick Pin/bar in each fragment. Bar to bar connection Different types of fixators Monoplanar Biplanar Ring, Hybrid Stabilitiy factors complications

28 Basic principles

29 Workshop for external fixation Thomas Beck Allgemeine und Unfallchirurgie Spitalzentrum Oberwallis

30 Goals: Perform different types of external fixators Understand factors that influence frame stability with different fixator models

31 5 different exercises (20min each) Distal radius joint spanning fixator (modular) Ankle joint spanning fixator Proximal tibia Hybrid fixator Tibia shaft modular fixator Stability comparing exercises Groups of two participants

32 Distal radius joint spanning fixator (modular) The frame

47 Proximal tibia hybrid fixator The frame

48 The pins From proximal to distal

49 The pins

50 Proximal tibia hybrid fixator Discuss with the faculty: Frame type Pins Size Position (anatomical structures at risk) Reduction technique Stability complications

51 tibia shaft modular fixator The frame

52 The pins From proximal to distal

53 The pins

54 The reduction

55 Additional stability Double rod

56 Proximal tibia hybrid fixator Discuss with the faculty: Frame type Pins Size Position (anatomical structures at risk) Reduction technique How to enhance stability How to use fixator as help for later nailing

57 Stability comparing fixators The frame

58 The exercise: play with the distances Mod. 1: B: small, C: large Mod. 2: B: wide, C: small Mod. 3: B: wide, C: small, A: wide Mod. 4: Correct Model 3 to A:small C A B Compare stability and discuss with faculty

59 Stability comparing fixators Discuss with the faculty: Factors influencing fixator stability Pins Rods Clamps
