French term

Hi,

The patient has a femur fracture. Before the procedure:
- Réduction par manoeuvre externe et traction de la fracture.

Is this a closed reduction?

Thanks

Herbmione Granger Jun 3, 2017:
or perhaps an external fixation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/External_fixation
but I think it's a general meaning, like "La technique orthopédique a pour but de remettre en place, en s'aidant de manipulations externes,.. ": http://www.vulgaris-medical.com/encyclopedie-medicale/reduct...
or perhaps closed reduction works, because they categorize the reduction into technique orthopédique (closed reduction?) and technique chirurgicale (open reduction?)
Herbmione Granger Jun 3, 2017:
guessing here I think that it means that the reduction is maintained by external applications (last paragraph): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reduction_(orthopedic_surgery)
