surgical fixation techniques

Surgical fixation techniques are methods used to stabilize broken or damaged bones, allowing them to heal properly. This can involve the use of hardware like metal plates, screws, rods, or pins to hold the bones in the correct position. Sometimes, wires or stitches are used to secure soft tissue. The choice of technique depends on the fracture's location and severity. The goal is to maintain proper alignment, provide stability, and promote efficient healing, enabling the patient to regain function and strength in the affected area.
