Following the successful treatment of knee-flexion contractures in haemophiliacs using an external corrective system with reversed dynamic slings, these have been adapted to treat post-traumatic elbow contractures. A case is described in which 90 degrees of fixed flexion was corrected in 1 week without discomfort. Clearly there is no need to resort to an internally applied hinge-distractor apparatus or capsulectomy if a simple external sling system is successful without complications.
在使用反向动力吊带外部矫正系统成功治疗血友病患者的膝关节屈曲挛缩后，该系统已被改编用于治疗创伤后肘关节挛缩。本文描述了一个病例，其中90度的固定屈曲在1周内得到矫正且无不适。显然，如果一个简单的外部吊带系统成功且无并发症，就无需诉诸于内部应用的铰链撑开器或关节囊切除术。
