  • Title: The Ilizarov method. Orthopedic and soft tissue applications.
    Author: Gugenheim JJ.
    Journal: Clin Plast Surg; 1998 Oct; 25(4):567-78. PubMed ID: 9917976.
    Abstract:
    The Ilizarov method has broad applications for the generation of bone and soft tissue via an external fixator composed of small pins, tensional wires, rings, hinges and distractors. The success of the technique depends on adherence to Ilizarov's principles of tension-stress phenomenon: preservation of the tissues' blood supply, frequent distraction in small increments, and full function of the extremity.
