    Journal: Ortop Travmatol Protez; 1991 Jun; (6):5-7. PubMed ID: 1784491.
    Abstract:
    In the article are presented the results of surgical treatment of 176 patients with associated craniocerebral injury. To the primary osteosynthesis in the first post-hospital day have been subjected 75 patients and to the postponed osteosynthesis--101 patient. For osteosynthesis there have been applied the methods of stable-functional osteosynthesis by plates (57.3%), by means of the external fixation apparatus (19.8%), by rods (10.8%) and by other means. The experience of the primary osteosynthesis, including the experience of simultaneous operation on 2-3 segments with application of the atraumatic technique, indicates that the operation doesn't aggravate the severity of injury but ensures more quick rehabilitation of the patients with craniocerebral injury, guarantees the complete restoration of function during 1-2 post-operative months.
