Types of Internal Fixations
October 26, 2020
While internal and external fixations are both common to help repair damaged bones, doctors choose the procedure depending on how seriously bones are damaged. As compared to external fixations, internal fixations are more advantageous as they allow earlier mobilisation and involve less complicated casting. It also reduces the need to stay hospitalised for a longer duration, while enabling patients to return to their former routine more speedily. Internal fixations also reduce the chances of non-union or improper healing of broken bones as well as mal-union, i.e. healing in improper positions. Despite the advancement of medical procedures involving bone repairs, orthopaedic surgeons across the world are continuing their research to develop new and improved methods of treating fractures.
