Absorbable implants versus metal implants for the treatment of ankle fractures: A meta-analysis

This meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the efficiency and the safety of absorbable implants. Five major electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, SinoMed and Wanfang Data) were systematically searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) from their establishment to November 20...

description This meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the efficiency and the safety of absorbable implants. Five major electronic databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, SinoMed and Wanfang Data) were systematically searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) from their establishment to November 2012. Studies on absorbable implants and metal implants for ankle fractures were selected. The meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.1. Ten studies with 762 patients were included and analyzed. Compared with metal implants, absorbable implants used for the internal fixation of ankle fractures produce similar radiographic and functional outcomes (P= 0.52). Normally, removal of the internal fixation is unnecessary (P
