No difference in all measured biomechanical parameters supports equivalence between constructs and surgeon discretion in determining operative method. Minimal fragment displacement and construct deformation during physiological testing support previous data that early postoperative motion can be recommended. Fragment displacement that occurs does so in the early periods of motion.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
