METHOD OF TREATING PATIENTS WITH FRACTURES OF TUBULAR BONES Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC A61B17/64 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to field of medicine, namely to traumatology and orthopedics. Through external bone surface formed is hole, going into intramedullary channel. Through said hole into intramedullary channel fixer is introduced and installed in destroyed part of bone. Liquid is supplied into fixer, ensuring even pressure, performed via external surfaces of fixer onto response contact bone surfaces. Fixation of fixer inside bone is realised due to increase of transverse dimension of working part of fixer in accordance with internal diameter of intramedullary channel and tight contact of external surface of fixer with response contact bone surface. Pressure inside fixer is kept stably high for the period from ten days and longer. After that it is gradually reduced to minimal. After eight months after osteosynthesis fixer is removed.

EFFECT: method ensures reduction of trauma of bone and soft tissues when performing manipulations during operation, reduction of possibility of development of early post-operative complications, elimination of delayed or incorrect union of bone fragments, absence of additional immobilisation in post-operative period, reduction of hospitalisation terms.
