Answer:

Internal fixation is a type of fixation of a fracture usually is not removed after the fracture has healed.

Explanation:

When a bone is fractured, it should be immediately stabilized to allow full recovery.

Internal Fixation is a orthopedic surgical procedure which involves <u>stabilization of the broken bones </u><u>internally</u><u> by using </u><u>screws, plates, wires, and nails</u><u>.</u> This also <u>reduces the incidence of </u>malunion (fracture did not heal in right position), nonunion (fracture did not heal properly) and possibility of earlier functional rehabilitation. The implants used in internal fixation are usually made from <u>stainless steel</u> and <u>titanium</u>, same as those found airplane parts.
