Italian Femoral Arch 90° S.S.
The Italian Femoral Arch 90° – Stainless Steel is a robust, pre-contoured orthopedic frame component designed for femoral external fixation, particularly in fracture stabilization, bone lengthening, or corrective osteotomies. This arch features a 90-degree angular configuration, allowing precise positioning around the femoral shaft, especially for anterolateral access and multi-planar fixation. The term "Italian" refers to the design origin, which emphasizes modular, anatomically adaptive geometry, widely adopted in Ilizarov-style fixation systems. Material: AISI 316L Surgical-Grade Stainless Steel Offers high mechanical strength, biocompatibility, and corrosion resistance Finish: Matte or electropolished finish Fully autoclavable and suitable for repeated use
- Complex Femoral Fracture Management – Supports open or comminuted femoral fractures with precision-controlled external stabilization.
- Bone Lengthening Procedures – Used as part of the Ilizarov technique or LRS hybrid fixators for femoral distraction osteogenesis.
- Angular & Rotational Deformity Corrections – Ideal for valgus/varus and torsional deformity corrections involving the femur.
- Periprosthetic Fixation – Supports external fixation around hip implants or prostheses in revision or salvage surgeries.
- Modular Frame Construction – Provides a versatile mounting structure for use with other arches, half-rings, or full circular constructs.
- 90° Pre-Formed Arch Design – Specifically shaped to match the femoral contour for optimal fixation.
- High Strength Build – Suitable for high-load-bearing applications like femoral fractures.
- Multi-Hole Pattern – Allows for the fixation of Schanz screws, wires, and connecting rods in various orientations.
- Stable Base for Frame Constructs – Acts as a foundation for complex, multiplanar assemblies.
- Universal Compatibility – Integrates easily with standard ring fixators, arches, and rods.
- Reusable & Sterilizable – Engineered for multiple surgical cycles.
