Introduction to Hoffman External Fixation

Hoffman came into contact with a large number of patients with high-energy injuries caused by skiing, and gradually began to think about the treatment of fractures. At that time, the external fixator advocated by Lambotte and others was naturally among Hoffman's attempts. He realized that the core of fracture treatment is still stability. After studying Lambotte’s external fixation stent, he invented a set of simple and reliable Hoffman external fixation methods that do not require incision and have little soft tissue damage. Hoffman also designed a needle clip that he called "Grip" (original meaning: grip). This kind of needle clamp is two pieces of tightly closed metal plates, which can tightly "hold" the bone needle, and the other end is connected with the external fixation rod by a ball and socket joint. By virtue of the universal mobility of the ball and socket joint, the surgeon Any reduction of the fracture can be carried out. The advantages of this new Hoffman external fixation are: the operation is unusually simple and fast, and the fixation force is considerable. Hoffman also designed different shapes for his new stent to meet the needs of various parts, such as the star-shaped nail holder at the proximal femur, and the car rocker-shaped fixation rod for the humerus (bypassing the radial nerve) .

The second generation of Hoffman external fixation concept quickly emerged under the development of subsequent scholars.  In the 1970s after Hoffman’s death, scholars from all over the world made rapid breakthroughs in the theory, technology, and design of Hoffman external fixation.


We believe that Hoffman external fixation is still a good tool for unstable pelvic fractures. For reducing patient pain and bleeding, it is beneficial to nursing care and allowing patients to receive rehabilitation work as soon as possible. However, Hoffman external fixation still has its shortcomings. For some more complex fractures, such as sacral joint fracture or combined sacral or sacral fractures, it will not be satisfactory if it is not accompanied by auxiliary internal fixation. the result of.
