CARBON-FIBER REINFORCED PLATES FOR PROBLEM FRACTURES

We report our experience with carbon-fibre reinforced plastic (CFRP) plates in the management of 19 problem fractures complicated by either infection, nonunion, comminution or contamination. The combination offers secure fixation without inhibition of callus formation.
