ILIZAROV CIRCULAR EXTERNAL FIXATOR SYSTEM

orthopromed ilizarov external fixatorThe Ilizarov method, implemented with other systems of external fixation, plays a leading role in the treatment of a wide range of orthopaedic problems, including limb length inequality, axial deformities, joint stiffness and some other conditions. In trauma it can be stated that some kind of consensus across the world exists nowadays about the use of Ilizarov methods in cases of trauma sequelae like limb shortening, bone defects, malunions, and osteomyelitis. A general statement about indications for the Ilizarov method in trauma is that the method should be considered in any situation where surgeon feels inconvenient with internal fixation. Also a suggestion should be added that the more severe fracture is, the more the Ilizarov method is suitable for the case.

The following most common trauma indications for the Ilizarov method should be considered:
• Severe open fractures with major soft tissue damage
• Limb salvage in fractures combined with vascular injuries
• Open fractures with bone loss
• Intra and periarticular fractures:
• tibial plateau and pilon fractures
• distal femur,
• distal radius
• foot
• elbow
• Intra and periarticular fractures with diaphyseal extension
• Implant failures, refractures, fractures in conditions of pre-existing limb deformities
