Clinical evaluation of a new method for internal fixation with power-driven staples is presented. We have used the 3M staplizer for 2 years in 100 cases and the result of the fixation obtained with the titanium staples in metaphyseal bone has been very good. Ninety-six cases healed without any problems, and in 4 there was displacement. The only case with infection was successfully treated with antibiotics. We conclude that the 3M staplizer is a reliable method for internal fixation of metaphyseal bone. The staples are easily driven into the bone, reasonable stability is obtained and the method is fast and safe.
