Internal fixation has been playing a pivotal role in orthopedic surgical procedures, yet the evolution of these devices has been relatively short. There is an uprising increase in the instance of trauma and injury. Therefore to accurately ensure the fracture management; fixation or reduction of fracture to reinstate anatomical associations while maintaining the stability of the fixation device and to preserve the blood supply of soft tissues and bone is advantageous. Internal fixation devices offer sustenance until the bone is entirely rehabilitated. These can also be kept throughout the life time of a recipient. This review focuses on an evolutionary perspective of different devices used surgically for the repair of long bone fractures. |
