  Fractures are a common medical condition that affects millions of people worldwide each year. While minor fractures can often be treated with simple casting, more complex fractures sometimes require advanced surgical interventions. One such technique is External Fixation, which plays a critical role in modern orthopedic treatments. This blog provides a comprehensive overview of  external fixation for fractures , exploring its procedures, types, and benefits.

  Variable angle locking plates  are essential components in modern orthopaedic surgery, particularly in the fixation of fractures. These specialized plates provide surgeons with a flexible, stable, and reliable method for securing fractured bones in both simple and complex fractures. Their versatility, combined with advanced engineering, has made them a go-to tool in various surgical applications. In this blog, we will explore what locking variable angle plates are, their design features, and their common surgical uses.

  Orthopedic surgeries have witnessed remarkable advancements over the years, and one of the transformative innovations in fracture fixation is the cable locking plates system. This advanced surgical method has redefined how fractures are treated, offering numerous benefits over traditional fixation systems.  Cable Locking plates and screws  are used for the treatment of different types of fractures including periprosthetic fractures in the long bones, osteopenic bone fractures, and periprosthetic long bone fractures. In this blog, we delve into the advantages of cable-locking plate systems, particularly their role in achieving faster fracture fixation, improved stability, and better patient outcomes.

  Injuries to the hands, such as fractures, can significantly disrupt daily activities. These small but vital appendages are essential for virtually every task, from gripping and lifting to writing and typing. When a Hand Fracture occurs, the goal of treatment is to restore functionality quickly and safely while minimizing complications. One groundbreaking advancement in orthopedic treatment is the  hand locking system , a technique that has revolutionized the healing process for hand fractures.

  Chronic neck pain radiating down your arm and weakness & numbness in the area can significantly disrupt your daily life. If conservative treatments like physical therapy and medication haven’t provided relief, your doctor might recommend  Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion  (ACDF) surgery. The surgery aims at removing the damaged disc to improve painful symptoms. This blog will shed light on ACDF, explaining what it is, when it’s considered, and what to expect during the procedure and recovery. However, before we move ahead, let us have a quick look at the anatomy of our neck.
