title: [The use of external fixation apparatus in injuries to the hand bones].
abstract: An analysis of experimental studying the stability of osteosynthesis and clinical application of apparatuses of external fixation in 282 patients with fractures and sequellae of traumas of the bones and joints of the hand is presented. Main conditions influencing stability of fixation of the hand bones were determined. A universal complex of details is recommended which allows to make the optimum construction of the device as applied to the specific kind of trauma. It was proved that choice of the individual construction of the apparatus considerably widened the scope of using the method of external fixation and improved results of the treatment.
