This book is a practical and comprehensive text on fracture
fixation in children using intramedullary pins. The original
technique initiated in 1977 follows a simple principle of
transverse and longitudinal fixation in which two bowed opposed
pins are inserted from the metaphysis and elastically fill the bone
cavity. The strong mechanical stability provided allows an early
return to full activity and weight-bearing. The volume explains the
biology, mechanical principles, and rules for conducting the
surgery for this technique. Long bone fractures are then looked at
individually along with specific indications. Both the experienced
and the novice surgeon are given guidance that allows operative
treatment of virtually any type of long bone fracture in children.
