Dynamic External Fixator With Ball And Socket Joint Medium



+ Description
The Dynamic External Fixator with Ball and Socket Joint (Medium) is a versatile fixation system designed for mid-sized bones, such as the radius, ulna, tibia (distal third), or forearm structures in adult patients. Its ball-and-socket articulation offers enhanced maneuverability and multidirectional stability, making it ideal for complex fractures, periarticular injuries, and corrective orthopedic procedures.
+ Indications
- Forearm Fracture Stabilization – Ideal for radius and ulna fractures, especially those requiring multidirectional alignment in adults.
- Distal Tibia Fractures – Supports fixation in complex lower leg fractures, particularly when soft tissue condition limits internal fixation.
- Joint-Spanning Applications – Useful for temporary bridging across joints (e.g., wrist or ankle) to preserve alignment while soft tissue heals.
- Post-Traumatic Reconstruction – Assists in maintaining reduction during staged or complex reconstructions after trauma.
- Deformity Correction – Permits gradual angular and rotational correction in diaphyseal or periarticular deformities.
- Limb Lengthening Support – Can be adapted with lengthening units for distraction osteogenesis or bone transport procedures.
- Infection or Open Injury Management – Safe and effective in open fractures or infected non-unions, where internal fixation is contraindicated.
+ Key Features
- Ball & Socket Mechanism – Provides universal angular movement (360°), allowing precise positioning for optimal anatomical alignment in multiplanar fractures.
- Dynamic Axial Control – Permits controlled micromotion at the fracture site to enhance callus formation and biological bone healing.
- Modular Medium-Sized Frame – Sized and balanced for mid-sized bones, especially adult forearm or lower leg applications, ensuring the right combination of rigidity and flexibility.
- Secure Locking & Fine Adjustment – Locking knobs and screws allow for micro-adjustments and rigid fixation once alignment is achieved.
- Radiolucent Compatibility – Slim-profile components enable clear radiographic visualization during and after surgery.
- High-Grade Materials – Constructed from anodized aluminum, 316L stainless steel, and biocompatible alloys for strength, durability, and patient safety.
- Reusable & Autoclavable – Withstands multiple sterilization cycles without mechanical degradation.
- ISO & CE Certified – Produced under strict international quality standards for orthopedic surgical devices.
