osteosynthesis

Between 1970 and 1990, Straumann became a leading manufacturer of osteosynthesis implants.

At early 1980-s professor Bliskunov created method of completely closed distraction osteosynthesis.

Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Osteosynthesefragen is a major organisation dealing with issues of osteosynthesis.

Fixation after external device removal is provided by intraosseous rod (osteosynthesis).

In distraction osteosynthesis by external devices the spikes overcome (cut) soft tissues resistance (skin, fascia, muscles) during lengthening.

A management buy-out of the osteosynthesis division in 1990 led to the creation of Stratec (subsequently Synthes) as a separate company.

The acquisition of Mathys, which produces instruments used to implant trauma, spine and orthopedic devices, makes Synthes the global leader in osteosynthesis.

It is also useful in pre-planning and guiding the correct anatomical position of displaced bone fragments in fractures, allowing a good fixation by osteosynthesis.

The surgical result regarding the position of bone autotransplants or after the osteosynthesis of bone fractures can be foreseen using stereolithographic models.

In 2003, Mathys consigns its osteosynthesis division to at that time Synthes-Stratec and focuses from now on exclusively on orthopaedics.

Wiring of the teeth helps stabilize the fracture (either during placement of osteosynthesis or as a treatment by itself), so the lack of teeth will guide treatment.

In 1960, during a visit to the Cleveland Clinic, Dr. Rosen learned about osteosynthesis, a medical procedure that joined the ends of a fractured bone by metal plates and screws.

The third of the original AO/ASIF partner companies, Mathys, sold its osteosynthesis department to Synthes-Stratec in 2004, although the firm's German division was divested to satisfy competition authorities.

It is named after the orthopedic surgeon Gavriil Abramovich Ilizarov who invented the Ilizarov apparatus, which is a method of transosseous osteosynthesis or Ilizarov method for the surgical procedure to lengthen or reshape limb bones.

Minimally invasive plate metallosynthesis is a method of osteosynthesis in which is manual comparison of the fragments and fixing them by the smallest possible incisions metal (usually titanium) plate with angular stability special screws, which, together with the plate, constitute a single system.
