Elective removal vs. retaining of hardware after osteosynthesis in asymptomatic patients – A scoping review.

2020-08-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Osteosynthesis is the internal fixation of fractures or osteotomy by mechanical devices (also called hardware). After bone healing, there are two options: One is to remove the hardware, the other is to leave it in place. The removal of the hardware in patients without medical indication (elective) is controversially discussed. We performed a scoping review to identify evidence on the elective...
