Present methods include traction of tibia, plaster fixation, steel plate, intramedullary nailing, et al., but all these methods have such problems like long-term fixation of limbs, limited articualr function, unhealing, higher incidence of infection. External fixed frame combined with early interventional function exercises is the best method at present for promoting function recovery of affected limbs.展开更多
