a fracture treatment procedure where pins are placed thru soft tissues and bone so an external appliance is used to hold the bones in place while healing
internal fixation(ORIF-open reduction internal fixation)
fracture treatment where pins or plates are placed directly into the bones to hold broken pieced in place. this form is usually not removed once the bone is healed.
