ALTERNATIVE TO THE TECHNIQUE OF TRANSOSSEOUS OSTEOSYNTHESIS OF SHIN BONE FRACTURES

The apparatus and the technique of osteosynthesis ofdiaphyseal fractures of shin bones are presented in the article. The technique combines the possibility of bone fracture fragments position control at compression and reduction in process of cyclic loads. This treatment technique provides the optimization of reparative osteogenesis conditions, earlier restored support-motor functions of an injured limb and prevents contamination of tissues which surround transosseous elements. The constructive solutions of pin-related osteosynthesis presented in the article are adapted in topographical anatomy aspect according to the location of fractures. The technique has been applied to 124 patients with diaphyseal shin bone fractures. Positive outcomes have been recieved in 99,6% of clinical observations.
