Treatment of displaced, proximal, humeral, epiphyseal fractures with a two-prong splint.

abstract：:This paper presents a modified surgical technique for interlocked intramedullary stabilization of tibia fractures. An external distractor is used to achieve an indirect fracture reduction on a fluoroscopy table. This method avoids the potential traction complications associated with conventional fracture tables. The f...
