This textbook provides a comprehensive overview of minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO), featuring insights from AO surgeons worldwide in its second expanded edition. It covers fundamental concepts alongside the latest clinical and scientific research, guiding surgeons through essential MIPO application steps across various anatomical regions. Enhanced with clear photographs, x-rays, MRIs, CT scans, and detailed illustrations, the book is divided into two sections: Principles and Cases. Section 1 focuses on the principles of MIPO surgery and education, while Section 2 addresses all anatomical regions. Each region begins with a thorough introduction covering general MIPO techniques, including indications, preoperative planning, and positioning, followed by indirect and direct reduction and fixation techniques. Case examples provide a step-by-step guide for each procedure. Additional chapters discuss pediatric and fragility fractures, special indications, and implant removal, rounding out the second section. The MIPO technique emphasizes minimizing trauma to the fracture site by accessing bone through soft-tissue windows away from the injury. Direct reduction maneuvers, when necessary, are performed to leave minimal disturbance at the fracture area, promoting better healing. Hear the authors delve into the intricacies of Minimally Invasive Plate Osteosynthesis.
