Abstract
A simple method of skeletal traction is described to facilitate management of complicated multiple fractures of the metatarsals following crush injuries of the foot. The system uses Brock's pins and a modified Nissen loop to achieve either balanced traction or fixed traction. Satisfactory alignment of the fractures can be maintained whilst soft tissue disorders are dealt with.
