NCT ID NCT06690437

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks back at medical records of up to 118 patients in Italy who had surgery using the GALAXY FIXATION system or other Orthofix devices to stabilize fractures of the long bones (like the thigh or shin) or the pelvis. The goal is to see how well these devices hold the bones in place and help them heal in everyday hospital practice. No new treatments or tests are given—only existing data is reviewed.
