5th International Conference on Arthroplasty and Orthopedic Surgery

"Modern fracture management and innovative surgical techniques focused on faster healing and reduced complications."

Fracture management has evolved substantially over the years, with advancements in surgical techniques, fixation devices, and biological therapies improving healing times and reducing complications. Modern fixation methods, such as locking plates, intramedullary nailing, and external fixation, provide superior stability and reduce the need for extensive surgical interventions. In complex fractures, especially those involving the pelvis or spine, these technologies allow for faster stabilization and recovery, minimizing the risk of deformity and improving functional outcomes. Bone healing has also been enhanced through the use of bone grafts and bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), which stimulate new bone growth and help fractures heal more quickly and with fewer complications. The use of 3D imaging and patient-specific preoperative planning tools allows surgeons to more accurately assess fractures and tailor their surgical approach to individual patient needs. Minimally invasive techniques, including percutaneous pinning and arthroscopy, are increasingly being used for fractures in joints and complex regions, reducing trauma to soft tissues and allowing for faster rehabilitation. These techniques have led to reduced postoperative pain, lower infection rates, and shorter hospital stays. In pediatric fractures, the management approach focuses on preserving growth plates and minimizing long-term deformities. Specialized techniques, such as elastic intramedullary nailing and fracture reduction using image-guided surgery, are employed to ensure that bones heal properly without affecting the child’s growth and development. With ongoing advancements in fracture care, including biologic agents and precision surgery, orthopedic practitioners are able to provide better outcomes for patients, leading to faster recovery and improved quality of life.
