Abstract
Prof. Vatroslav Florschütz constructed in 1911 an extension table for repositioning
bone fracture fragments of the upper and lower extremities, after which a plaster
splint was applied—this later became to be known as the Balkan beam frame. Florschütz's
personal insistences of new techniques at the beginning of the 1900 have helped shape
war surgery and traumatology.
