[External fixation with autopolymerizing acrylic resin].

In November 1970, a new method of skeletal fixation was devised using self-curing acrylic resin. Manipulative reduction of the displaced fracture is made using screws inserted into the bone fragments under an image intensifier. After reduction, the proximal and distal fragments are joined together with the aid of self-curing acrylic resin. Adjacent joints can be exercised immediately after operation and the fixation is so firm that the use of a plaster cast after operation is not necessary. This simple method can be used in osteosynthesis, compression arthrodesis and various types of osteotomy.
