Direct and indirect loading of the Ilizarov external fixator: the effect on the interfragmentary movements and compressive loads

The amount of weight bearing and the force transmission to the frame have an important influence on the results of treatment with an Ilizarov external fixator. The frame provides beneficial interfragmentary movements and compressive loads at the fracture site through elastic wires. Mobilisation can...
