AbstractInterfragmentary lag screw internal fixation was combined with external fixation to treat five difficult oblique lower extremity fractures. Uncomplicated primary bone healing was achieved in all five cases in spite of crush injury, devascularization, or local infection. This method represents a treatment option for the difficult oblique fracture and reconfirms the role of fixation in fracture biology.
