Abstract:

Since its invention in 1951 by Dr. Gavril Abramovich Ilizarov, the Ilizarov ring fixator has revolutionized external fixation. This versatile device offers a minimally invasive alternative to traditional osteosynthesis methods for bone fractures. Unlike other external fixators, the Iliza-rov system allows for gradual three-dimensional deformity correction and modular frame ad-justments, even in outpatient settings. This study investigates the effectiveness of the Ilizarov fixator specifically for pilon fractures, comparing its long-term outcomes with existing litera-ture.
