Abstract
Important advances have been made within the last two decades in the field of fracture management. The development of the AO internal fixation system and the advances in cast bracing techniques are but two of the improvements worthy of mention. It is, however, in the field of external fixation of fractures that the greatest advances have been made. This paper traces the history of external fixation up to the present day and discusses, with examples, the application of external fixation in the management of complex limb fractures.Entities:
