Abstract
The management of intra-articular fractures remains difficult. Shape memory compression staples fulfil nearly all the special treatment requirements of intra-articular fractures. Early bone union and 93.5 per cent satisfactory function were achieved in a series of 121 cases. Stable fixation, 'early' movement and continuous compressive force produced by the staple are the main factors contributing to good results.Entities:
