The past 25 years have seen a progressive improvement in external
fixation techniques in terms of patient acceptability, ease of
appli- cation and apparatus stability. The recent awareness in
Europe of the method, application and excellent results of the
technique pio- neered by G. A. I1izarov has caused a rapid increase
here in the number of surgeons who have become "banderilleros". In
particu- lar, external fixators can be used in the treatment of
difficult clini- cal conditions, such as severe fractures and their
sequelae, as well as for the correction of congenital deformities
of the peripheral skeleton. As one of the first in France to use
the lIizarov method, I became increasingly aware that we needed an
updating of anatomical knowledge oriented towards this technique,
which uses multiple fixation pins. Without this anatomical
infonnation, there is real danger of damaging neuro-vascular
structures or entering ajoint in the course of assembling the
fixator. Traditional anatomical cross- sections are often
inadequate or too schematic to serve as a safe guide for the
surgeon using this particular technique. This is the reason why my
colleagues Claude Faure and Philippe Merloz have produced and
analysed a series of anatomical cross-sections of the limbs to
serve this particular need.
