The integrity of an external skeletal fixator relies heavily on the pin-bone interface (PBI). Investigation of this interface have focused on histological, mechanical, thermal and clinical assessments. In this review the factors which are important for optimizing the strength and longevity of the PBI are presented. Pin design, pin insertion technique, bone quality and tissue response are considered.
