MIPO definition of reduction
Indirect reduction
• Traction along axis of the limb
• Direct force application remote from the fracture site
• Soft tissue helps reduction (ligamentotaxis)
Direct reduction
• Direct force application at the fracture site
• Open or percutaneously
Indirect reduction by traction
• Manual traction
• AO distractor
• Fracture table
• External fixator
Tools for indirect reduction
• Bolster
• Towel
• Joystick
Direct force application
• Plate remote from the fracture site
Hazards:
• Too wide exposure
• Excessive periosteal stripping
Tools for reduction
• Hohmann
• Cerclage
Advantages of MIO
Biology
• Bone healing +
• Infection
• Bone graft
• Pain
• Faster rehabilitation
• Better cosmesis
Disadvantages of MIO
• Limited view
• Malunion
• Danger zones!
