[Biomechanical model for the transmission of dynamic stresses to the long bones by means of an external fixator to stimulate bone formation].
A new biomechanical model using an external fixator is described, which produces physiological dynamic axial stresses on the long bones without causing harmful micromovements at the fracture site. The authors are of the opinion that their model will make it possible to stimulate fracture healing by influencing bone remodelling and tissue differentiation.
