Overview of Minimally Invasive Percutaneous Plate Osteosynthsis

Abstract: This review focuses in reviewing the evidence based on various aspects of application of minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) technique used in commonly indicated fractures, along with factors influencing its mechanical stability. we intended to overview also the consideration for these procedures. Comprehensive search was conducted through; PubMed/ Medline, and Embase databases, searching literature concerning minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO), We searched studies published until end of 2016, Restricted our search to English language articles. This has led to development of minimally intrusive plate osteosynthesis. This strategy if used when suggested leads to many advantages such as greater rates of union with decreased surgical time, blood loss, post-operative pain, infection rates and specific other postoperative issues. This strategy is being applied typically in fractures such as shaft of humerus, proximal and distal femur, proximal and distal tibia and fracture ribs, with a number of advantages over its standard counterparts. Keywords: Minimally Invasive Plate Osteosynthesis (MIPO), Proximal and Distal Femur, Proximal and Distal Tibia.
