Abstract

Static circular fixation is a valuable tool for patients with Charcot foot and ankle deformities. The versatility of circular fixators allows for dynamic adjustments over time and can allow for off-loading of flaps or ulcers. The circular fixator can be used as a primary fixation device in cases of osteomyelitis or to facilitate lengthening when a segmental bone defect exists such as loss of the talus. As a secondary fixation device it can protect the internal fixation or be used when there is a compromised soft tissue envelope.

静态环形固定是治疗Charcot足和踝关节畸形的有效工具。圆形固定器的多功能性允许随着时间的推移进行动态调整，并且可以允许皮瓣或溃疡的卸载。在骨髓炎的情况下，圆形固定器可以用作主要的固定装置，或者当存在节段性骨缺损(如距骨丢失)时，用于促进延长。作为一种二级固定装置，它可以保护内固定或在软组织包膜受损时使用。
