METHOD FOR CARRYING OUT COMBINED TRANSOSSEOUS ULNA OSTEOSYNTHESIS IN DIAPHYSEAL FRACTURES AND THEIR CONSEQUENCES Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC A61B17/56 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: method involves introducing transosseous members only in positions distinguished by minimum soft tissue displacements when movements in ulnar, radiocarpal articulations and forearm rotations take place. External fixation apparatus is mounted as follows: The following radiological signs like periosteal regenerate availability being observed on all surfaces of adjacent fractured bone fragment ends, expressed endosteal regenerate being visible as unsharp contours of adjacent fractured bone fragment ends, separate longitudinal shadows of newly-formed bone regenerate being detected in interfragmental crack, initial signs of integral cortical plate formation and initial signs of medullary canal cavity development taking place, the external fixation apparatus units are to be transformed as follows:

EFFECT: reduced external fixation apparatus size; reduced risk of traumatic complications.
