The article is devoted to the analysis of 5-year-long application experience of the rod-based apparatus with external fixation. The apparatus have been developed at the institute named after prof. M. I. Sitenko. Certain advantages and indications for rod-fixation in traumatology have been substantiated. In urgent traumatology the apparatus made the best showing in treatment of the open fractures. Possibility of these apparatus application as the treatment-and-transportation immobilization facilities in case of mass entrance of victims has been demonstrated. Rod-based apparatus are widely used for fixation in case of correcting osteotomies, limb stretching (especially of the femoral segment) in children as well as for fixation of the instable spine damages. Complications in case of rod application manifest themselves as suppuration of the soft tissues and osteomyelitis. But their number is lower as compared with the wire apparatus application.
本文致力于分析基于棒的外固定器械长达5年的应用经验。该器械由以M. I. 西坚科教授命名的研究所研发。创伤学中棒固定的某些优势和适应症已得到证实。在急诊创伤学中，该器械在开放性骨折治疗中表现最佳。已证明在大量伤员涌入的情况下，这些器械作为治疗和运输固定设备应用的可能性。基于棒的器械广泛用于矫正截骨术、儿童肢体延长（尤其是股骨段）以及不稳定脊柱损伤的固定。使用棒时的并发症表现为软组织化脓和骨髓炎。但与使用钢丝器械相比，其数量较少。
