  • Title: External fixation with standard AO-plates: technique, indications, and results in 31 cases.
    Author: Kerkhoffs GM, Kuipers MM, Marti RK, Van der Werken C.
    Journal: J Orthop Trauma; 2003 Jan; 17(1):61-4. PubMed ID: 12499970.
    Abstract:
    The standard AO-plate was used as an external fixator in 31 patients with an infected nonunion or open fracture mainly of the upper extremity. With the use of this technique, good stability can be achieved with an inexpensive and relatively simple construction. The low profile of the frame is an advantage for the patient.
