Lateral Cortical Fixation as the Optimal Strategy for Achieving Stability in Rib Fractures: A Patient-Specific Finite Element Analysis

Lateral Cortical Fixation as the Optimal Strategy for Achieving Stability in Rib Fractures: A Patient-Specific Finite Element Analysis

The surgical stabilization of rib fractures helps maintain chest wall stability and reduces respiratory complications. This study aimed to identify the key biomechanical parameters for evaluating the stability of rib fracture fixation using finite element analysis (FEA) and compare four rib fixation...
