There have been extensive studies determining the basic mechanism for fracture healing using this technique. It is generally accepted that circular frames optimise the mechanical environment by reducing shear strain across the fracture while maintaining axial micromotion so as to promote fracture healing. There have been several new hexapod-type frames introduced into the market over the past 20 years with little comparative research into their biomechanical properties and resultant effects on the fracture environment.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Questions/purposes: &lt;/strong&gt;To investigate the biomechanical behaviours of the TrueLok-Hex (TL-HEX) and Taylor spatial frame (TSF) hexapod-type circular external fixators with comparison to traditional Ilizarov-type (TL-Ilizarov and TSF-Ilizarov) constructs and potential performance &lt;i&gt;in vivo&lt;/i&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;Testing was performed on standardised four-ring TSF and TL-HEX constructs matched by identical frames using Ilizarov threaded rod constructs for each set of components. All frames were tested under physiological levels of axial, bending and torsional loading. Load-deformation properties for each construct under each mode of loading were calculated and analysed statistically using ANOVA.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;Under axial loading, the Ilizarov construct utilising TL-HEX components demonstrated the greatest rigidity followed by the Ilizarov construct using TSF components. Under bending loads, the difference in rigidity between constructs was similar but less marked. Under torsional loading, both hexapod frames were seen to be significantly more rigid than the Ilizarov constructs. Overall deformation around neutral loading was much higher in the TSF frame due to an observed significant \"toe-in\" laxity in the strut universal joints. The remaining deformation of both hexapod frames was similar with a higher level of TL-HEX rigidity in axial loading and a higher level of TSF rigidity in bending and torsion.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;In conclusion, both hexapod frame constructs were less rigid under axial loading but more rigid under bending and torsional loads than their comparative Ilizarov constructs. As a result of their Cardan universal joints, the TSF demonstrated greater overall planar strain due to the observed \"toe-in\" laxity around neutral loading while the TL-HEX, with ball-and-socket universal joints, demonstrated a minimal level of laxity. Beyond the initial deformation due to the preloaded laxity, both hexapod frames responded to loading in a similar manner. There were significant differences in the frames' mechanical behaviour under different loading conditions but further research is required to determine whether these translate &lt;i&gt;in vivo&lt;/i&gt; into clinical significance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How to cite this artic","PeriodicalId":21979,"journal":{"name":"Strategies in Trauma and Limb Reconstruction","volume":"16 3","pages":"138-143"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/c8/d4/stlr-16-138.PMC8778724.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"39882422","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Surgical treatment of these deformities is now well established. Conventional surgical treatment includes extensive surgical exposure, excision of bone, acute correction and internal fixation, which is not always appropriate in presence of active ulceration, infection and poor bone quality. A minimally invasive approach to osteotomies and gradual correction of deformities using a circular frame are proving helpful in minimizing the complications. Taylor Spatial Frame (TSF) hexapod with its various modules is well suited for a range of foot and ankle deformities. We have advocated minimally invasive targeted hind and mid foot osteotomies and gradual correction with Taylor Spatial Frame (TSF) in 10 patients with recurrent ulceration and deformity. There are 2 female and 8 male patients in this cohort. Appropriate TSF module was chosen for each patient- a long bone module for ankle and hindfoot deformities (4 patients) and a forefoot 6x6 butt frame (6 patients) for foot deformities. An osteotomy through the midfoot was performed in all chronic stable foot deformity cases. In the ankle and hindfoot deformities, a combination of soft tissue distraction correction of equinus and acute correction of hindfoot deformity through a calcaneal osteotomy, were used. Our outcome measures are complete healing of the ulcers and resolution of infection, clinically plantigrade foot and ability to wear regular or diabetic footwear. Complications included eight episodes of pin infection that responded to oral antibiotics only and two pin breakages. We achieved ulcer and infection free plantigrade feet that fit in to regular or diabetic footwear in 9 out of 10 patients. 9 patients remain ulcer and infection free at a minimum of 7 years and maximum of 14 years follow up.

In both these cases, calcium sulphate (Stimulan-Biocomposites, Keele, UK) antibiotic-loaded beads were used for local delivery of a high concentration of antibiotics. However, calcium sulphate worked as an osteoconductive agent and led to regeneration of the fibula. Regeneration of the fibula has its benefits and downside. Regeneration can be beneficial in patients in whom future arthroplasty is considered as total ankle replacement would not be possible in the absence of distal fibula. On the contrary, a regenerated fibula can be a source of ankle pain related to the syndesmotic joint. There is also a report of infection recurring in the regenerated fibula.

Double osteotomy technique was applied, namely a metaphyseal closing wedge and a medial hemiplateau elevation, through a single midline incision. Fixation was achieved by a medial anatomical locked plate. Patients were evaluated clinically according to a modified version of paediatric outcomes data collection Instrument (PODCI) and radiologically by measuring the angle between the tibial and the femoral shaft, the mechanical axis deviation (MAD) and the angle of the medial tibial plateau (MTP) depression.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The average follow-up period was 2 years. Healing of the osteotomies was achieved in all cases after the index operation within an average of 3 months.
