Hand Fixator Ball & Socket type with Lengthening device
+ Description
The Ball & Socket Hand Fixator with Integrated Lengthening Mechanism is a specialized external fixator designed for the precise stabilization, alignment, and controlled distraction of small bones in the hand. It allows multidirectional adjustment and gradual lengthening, making it ideal for trauma, deformity correction, and reconstructive procedures.
+ Indications
- Phalangeal and Metacarpal Fractures – Provides stable fixation and allows controlled motion in unstable or comminuted hand fractures.
- Bone Lengthening & Transport – Ideal for distraction osteogenesis procedures in digit lengthening or bone loss reconstruction.
- Joint Realignment & Deformity Correction – Corrects angular, rotational, or length discrepancies in congenital or post-traumatic deformities.
- Soft Tissue Preservation in Open Injuries – Used when internal fixation is contraindicated due to infection risk or soft tissue compromise.
- Arthrodesis Positioning Aid – Holds precise joint position in finger or thumb fusion procedures.
- Pediatric Applications – Can be adapted for use in pediatric hand cases with small bone diameters and delicate anatomy.
- Reconstructive & Microsurgical Support – Supports free flap stabilization or complex reconstructive alignment post-tumor resection or trauma.
+ Key Features
- Ball & Socket Joint Mechanism – Enables multiplanar articulation, including angulation and rotation, providing surgeons with fine-tuned control over fragment positioning.
- Integrated Lengthening Device – Incorporates a micro-adjustable distraction mechanism to facilitate controlled bone lengthening or transport, ideal for phalangeal and metacarpal procedures.
- Compact & Lightweight Frame – Optimized for hand anatomy with a low-profile, ergonomically balanced design to minimize patient discomfort during use.
- Modular & Compatible – Works with standard mini external fixator components—pins, rods, and clamps—for customizable constructs.
- Radiolucent Zones (Optional) – Optional radiolucent segments ensure clear imaging during intraoperative alignment or postoperative follow-up.
- High-Grade Materials – Made from medical-grade stainless steel (316L) or titanium, ensuring biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, and mechanical strength.
- Precision Locking & Release Mechanisms – Offers both rigid locking and progressive release for dynamic adjustments over time.
- Reusable & Autoclavable – Built for multiple sterilization cycles, maintaining function and accuracy in repeated surgical use.
- ISO & CE Certified – Manufactured in accordance with global orthopedic safety and quality standards.
