Biomechanics of fracture healing: how best to optimize your construct in the OR
Abstract. Orthopaedic surgeons routinely assess the biomechanical environment of a fracture to create a fixation construct that provides the appropriate amount of stability in efforts to optimize fracture healing. Emerging concepts and technologies including reverse dynamization, “smart plates” that...
