Journal ArticleDOI
Minimally invasive fracture stabilization of distal femoral fractures with the LISS: a prospective multicenter study. Results of a clinical study with special emphasis on difficult cases.
M. Schütz,Marc Andreas Müller,Christian Krettek,Dankward Höntzsch,P. Regazzoni,R. Ganz,Norbert P. Haas +6 more
TL;DR: The LISS-DF (Less Invariant Stabilization System-Distal Femur) as discussed by the authors is a new type of implant system for the treatment of distal femoral fractures according to the principles of minimally invasive surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of the Less Invasive Stabilization System (LISS) in patients with distal femoral (AO33) fractures: a prospective multicenter study
Michael Schütz,Mathias Müller,Pietro Regazzoni,Dankward Höntzsch,Christian Krettek,Christian Van der Werken,Norbert Haas +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the Less Invasive Stabilization System (LISS) for the treatment of distal femoral fractures, a group in which fracture management is often complicated by multiple trauma and soft tissue damage.
Journal ArticleDOI
Angle stable interlocking screws improve construct stability of intramedullary nailing of distal tibia fractures: A biomechanical study
TL;DR: A new angular stable locking option of intramedullary nails provides higher stability in terms of construct stiffness and reduced interfragmentary movements in a distal tibia in vitro fracture model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomechanical evaluation of the tension band wiring principle. A comparison between two different techniques for transverse patella fracture fixation.
TL;DR: Tension band wiring with cannulated screws was found advantageous over Kirschner wires in terms of interfragmentary movements at the posterior fracture site and fulfills from a biomechanical perspective the requirements for sufficient stability of transverse patella fracture fixation.
Journal ArticleDOI
A biomechanical study on proximal plate fixation techniques in periprosthetic femur fractures
Mark Lenz,Mark Lenz,S.M. Perren,Boyko Gueorguiev,Robert Geoff Richards,Gunther O. Hofmann,Alberto Fernandez dell’Oca,Dankward Höntzsch,Markus Windolf +8 more
TL;DR: Bicortical screw anchorage improves proximal plate fixation in periprosthetic fractures and the cerclage-screw combination is a valuable alternative especially in osteoporotic bone.
