A biomechanical study of the function of the femoral fracture brace
The cast-brace treatment of femoral shaft fractures, and functional fracture bracing in general, allows controlled motion of the fractured bone ends and loading of the fracture. Traditionally this treatment would not have been considered as the concept of fracture treatment was to eliminate movement...
