Resumo(s)
Succeeding a fracture of a long bone, there are multiple approaches to perform the bone fracture immobilization.The external fixation has traditionally been used under clinical indications, and can be a definitive optionin cases where risks of infection are high. The currently used system scannot predict or measure the complete bone consolidation[1, 2]. The purpose of the present study is to understand the phases of healing and to predict functional bone consolidation.This study was carrying out using the finite element analysis (FEA)to determine the influence of stress distribution along the tibia and the rods of the fixator.This information gathered by the present study is relevant to help medical and scientific communities to know the real fracture healing process.
