09/01/2004 - "A reproducible long bone pin tract infection model was developed that produced clinically and microbiologically evident pin tract infections."
01/01/1986 - "The side-bar separation and the pin modulus, in particular, can be adapted to decrease the rigidity, while only moderately increasing the stresses, thereby reducing changes for pin failure, pin-bone loosening, and pin-tract infection"
06/01/2001 - "Use of this TSP should minimize major problems encountered during external fixation associated with the transcortical pin and bone-pin interface (ie, bone necrosis, infection of the pin track, pin loosening, and bone failure)."
01/01/1999 - "RELEVANCE: Several aspects of the current external fixator pin design and insertion technique have been implicated for the significant incidence of failure at the pin-bone interface manifested as pin loosening, pin track infection or even osteomyelitis"
06/01/1996 - "Four different techniques for intramedullary nailing for the fixation of open fractures have been employed: (1) unreamed, unlocked nails (i.e., Ender and Lottes, which have low infection rates, but are mechanically insufficient); (2) reamed unlocked nailing (which relies on overreaming to provide stability through bone-nail surface contact, but is associated with high infection rates); (3) reamed locked nailing (which may rely on limited reaming because of the interlocking screws); and (4) unreamed nailing (which always relies on interlocking screws and is associated with function better than and infection rates similar to those with external fixation, but has an increased incidence of screw breakage)"
