Predrilling does not improve the pullout strength of external fixator pins: A biomechanical study
2013
Objectives:External fixator pins are thought to have improved pullout strength if inserted into both cortices and if pilot holes are drilled. We tested these hypotheses and investigated effects of osteoporosis and pin location on pin pullout strength.Methods:Self-drilling external fixator pins were
