Limb Fractures Treated With the Novel Plate Osteosynthesis Application Technique: Second to Minimally Invasive Plates osteosynthesis.

BACKGROUND

The main aim of this article was to propose a new concept of minimally invasive surgery for treating limb fractures, named as second to minimally invasive plates osteosynthesis (STMIPO).

METHODS

We have described the STMIPO technique in a step-wise and standardized manner based on our findings from a study involving six patients treated at our institution. All patients with fracture achieved satisfactory outcomes.

RESULTS

Ours clinical trials have shown that the STMIPO technique can be successfully applied in various limb fractures, including fibula fractures, tibial fractures, femur fractures, humerus fractures, ulna fractures, and radius fractures. All fracture patients achieved satisfactory outcomes.

CONCLUSION

As a new minimally invasive technology, the STMIPO technique can serve as an alternative solution for fractures that are difficult to reduce with minimally invasive plates osteosynthesis (MIPO).
