Repositioning Forceps<br />
Pointed forceps are typically<br />
instruments used for direct fracture<br />
reduction.<br />
Using one Forceps<br />
In oblique diaphyseal fractures, one<br />
branch of the forceps is positioned on<br />
each main fragment.<br />
With some pressure and simultaneous<br />
rotation of the handles the bone is<br />
lengthened and the fragments are<br />
reduced.<br />
Using two Forceps<br />
Each fragment is held with a pointed<br />
reduction forceps.<br />
Lengthening is achieved by manual distraction<br />
while proper axial alignment<br />
can be controlled with the two forceps.<br />
Using one Forceps for flat bone<br />
surfaces<br />
The forceps can also be applied directly<br />
to flat bone surfaces or be used with<br />
shallow drill holes<br />
