Abstract
Indirect reduction techniques in primary fracture management are of utmost importance as it deals with the concept of relative stability in high strain fracture environment. Here the goal is to achieve secondary bone healing without hampering the biology of the fracture that gives us quick fracture healing without much complications. Many implants used otherwise for direct reduction causing primary bone healing can be used as a device to achieve indirect reduction, and their proper application in different modes has been discussed for helping orthopedicians in clinical practice.
