Hans-Christoph Pape,Frank Hildebrand,Stephanie Pertschy,Boris A. Zelle,Rayeed Garapati,Kai Grimme,Christian Krettek,R. Lawrence Reed +7 more
TL;DR: A significant reduction in the incidence of general systemic complications regardless of the type of femur fixation used was found when comparing the time periods of 1981 to 1989 (ETC), 1990 to 1992 (INT), and 1993 to 2000 (DCO).
Journal ArticleDOI

Journal ArticleDOI
Damage control: extremities
TL;DR: The processes underlying the systemic biological impact of fracture fixation, the evolution of operative treatment strategies for major fractures in polytrauma and the current trends toward staged management of these patients are explored.
