This prospective study assessed the clinical and radiological outcomes of open tibia fractures treated with a dynamic external fixator.
Twenty-five patients underwent surgical debridement and stabilisation with a dynamic external fixator between November 2016 and April 2022. Regular follow-up evaluated bone healing progression.
Favourable outcomes were demonstrated in 20 patients. However, there were three cases of non-union, two of which subsequently deformed, and two cases of pin site-related infection. There were no fracture site infections.
This study demonstrates the use of dynamic external fixation in the treatment of open tibia fractures. The low incidence of complications suggests its effectiveness and potential.

本前瞻性研究评估了使用动力外固定器治疗开放性胫骨骨折的临床和影像学结果。
2016年11月至2022年4月期间,25例患者接受了手术清创并用动力外固定器进行固定。定期随访评估骨愈合进展情况。
20例患者取得了良好的结果。然而,有3例骨不连,其中2例随后出现畸形,还有2例与针道相关的感染。未发生骨折部位感染。
本研究证明了动力外固定在开放性胫骨骨折治疗中的应用。并发症发生率低表明了其有效性和潜力。
