Optical rotating torque sensor with nano newton-meter resolution based on a hanging torsion wire

Simon Nessim Henein, Etienne Frédéric Gabriel Thalmann, Billy Nussbaumer

This article presents a novel torque measuring setup working in the nano newton-meter range. The central novelty is a long (1 meter range) thin (diameter of a few tens of micrometers) metallic wire used instead of the relatively stiff torsion zone of the s ...

Predrilled locking compression plate is more accurate than tension band wiring in restoring articular geometry of the ulnar greater sigmoid notch after olecranon Chevron osteotomy

Alexandre Terrier, Patrick Goetti, Frédéric Vauclair

Introduction: The olecranon Chevron osteotomy (OCO) is commonly used to approach complex intraarticular fractures of the distal humerus. Predrilled tension band wiring (TBW) has historically been used to fix OCO. However, clinical outcomes are burdened by ...
