Italian Carbon Arch 90 °
The Italian Carbon Arch 90° is a pre-contoured, right-angle (90°) segment designed for femoral external fixation systems, combining strength, rigidity, and lightweight handling. Constructed from carbon fiber composite, it offers superior mechanical performance with reduced frame weight, which is crucial for patient comfort, mobility, and post-operative recovery. Designed in line with Italian frame philosophy, this arch facilitates accurate multi-planar fixation for trauma and deformity correction in the femur, without the radiopacity of metal. Material: Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) Provides high tensile strength, low weight, and biocompatibility Surface Finish: Smooth matte carbon weave finish Non-corrosive and radiolucent, allowing clear X-ray visualization
- Femoral Fracture Stabilization – Provides rigid external support for high-energy or multi-fragment femoral fractures.
- Limb Lengthening & Deformity Correction – Used in distraction osteogenesis, angular correction, and rotational alignment procedures.
- Enhanced Radiographic Planning – Excellent for cases requiring frequent imaging, such as post-op follow-up, due to radiolucency.
- Pediatric and Elderly Patients – Ideal for patients where reduced hardware weight minimizes discomfort and enhances recovery.
- Hybrid Frame Constructs – Easily integrates with metallic rings, carbon rods, or composite assemblies in hybrid systems.
- 90° Preformed Design – Designed to match femoral anatomy and facilitate stable frame constructs.
- Extremely Lightweight – Reduces overall frame weight, especially important in long-term fixation.
- High Strength & Rigidity – Supports complex constructs under physiological loading.
- Radiolucent – Allows unobstructed radiographic imaging, improving surgical accuracy.
- Multiple Pin Holes – Enables flexible placement of K-wires, Schanz pins, and connecting rods.
- Corrosion-Free – Ideal for use in moist wound environments and long-duration applications.
