The Kirschner method, also known as Kirschner wire pinning, is a crucial technique in orthopedic surgery and traumatology. It involves the use of Kirschner pins to fix and stabilize bones. Cannulated bars are essential to this method, as they enable:
Surgical precision – cannulated bars provide precise guidance for Kirschner wire insertion, ensuring accurate bone fixation, essential for optimal patient recovery.
Reduced tissue damage – the cannulated design of the bars minimizes damage to surrounding tissue, promoting faster recovery and reducing the risk of post-operative complications.
