  • Title: [Function-preserving interventions in metastatic fractures].
    Author: Lindecken KD.
    Journal: Zentralbl Chir; 1984; 109(14):905-9. PubMed ID: 6475371.
    Abstract:
    A report on combined osteosynthesis (plate and bone cement) in 11 metastatic fractures of arms and legs is presented. Fractures in the aged and high risk patients with osteoporosis are other indications for this method. Normal use of the affected limb and mobilization are possible one day after operation. Already existing visceral metastases are no contraindication.
