[Special utilization potentials of the external fixator in severe complex hand injuries].
Complex injuries to the hand may cause considerable problems in the aftertreatment. Two possibilities are described, which may facilitate and optimize the postoperative care of the severely injured hand: 1. In case of an inguinal pedicle flap, the temporary stabilization of the hand against the pelvis by means of external fixation is advocated. 2. After multiple extensor tendon repair, the temporary immobilization of the wrist, leaving the fingers free to move, by means of a small fixateur externe is suggested.
