Inadvertent Screw Stripping During Ankle Fracture Fixation in Elderly Bone

Inadvertent Screw Stripping During Ankle Fracture Fixation in Elderly Bone

Poor screw purchase because of osteoporosis presents difficulties in ankle fracture fixation. The aim of our study was to determine if cortical thickness, unicortical versus bicortical purchase, and bone mineral density are predictors of inadvertent screw stripping and overtightening. Ten paired cad...
