External fixation is a method of stabilizing fractures which employs pins which are connected to the bone at one end, travel through the surrounding soft tissues, and are fixed to a rigid external metal or composite frame. In readiness for conclusive treatment through internal fixing, current fracture care routinely requires the use of external fixation to maintain initial fracture stabilization with limited adverse effects on the soft tissues. As a result of the use of these external instruments, procedures of bone regeneration continue to progress in large part. In this study, with a focus on unilateral and circular frames, external fixators, and their evolution from the first fixators to the current fixators are studied.
