Abstract

This paper presents a model and analysis techniques for a unilateral external fixator to achieve fracture reduction and deformity correction in long bones precisely. through fixator joint adjustment. Combining the kinematic analysis with a graphic model of the tibia and the fixator allowed 3D simulation and visualization of the adjustments required to reduce fracture or correct bone deformity after osteotomy. The model and analysis technique can be used for fixator evaluation and clinical application planning.
