Limb Lengthing Fixator Medium
The Medium Limb Lengthening Fixator is an external orthopedic device designed for distraction osteogenesis, allowing gradual lengthening of long bones such as the tibia, femur, humerus, or radius/ulna in adolescents and adults. This fixator is part of a monolateral or hybrid frame system and is used following a corticotomy to slowly stretch the bone and regenerate new bone tissue in the gap. It supports stable fixation, precise alignment, and incremental distraction, making it a trusted tool for both trauma reconstruction and deformity correction.
Material:
Main Body / Rails / Rods:
High-strength anodized aluminum or carbon fiber (lightweight, radiolucent)
Distraction Unit / Screws:
Stainless steel (AISI 316L) or titanium alloy (for strength and durability)
Clamps & Connectors:
Surgical-grade stainless steel or titanium
Finish:
Corrosion-resistant, biocompatible, fully autoclavable
- Limb Length Discrepancy Treatment: Corrects congenital or acquired leg length inequalities, especially in adolescents and adults.
- Post-Traumatic Bone Loss Reconstruction: Fills gaps after bone resection due to trauma, tumor removal, or infection.
- Bone Transport: Used in segmental transport techniques for managing large bone defects.
- Complex Limb Deformity Correction: Provides support for angular and rotational realignment, including in cases of non-union or malunion.
- Humerus or Radius/Ulna Lengthening: Effective for upper limb lengthening procedures in mid-sized bones.
- Suitable for Medium Bone Segments: Ideal for tibia, femur, or forearm bones.
- Smooth Distraction Mechanism: Allows controlled lengthening, typically 1 mm/day in 0.25 mm increments.
- Radiolucent Options Available: Enables clear post-op imaging.
- Stable Monolateral Fixation: Rigid construct for patient comfort and quicker rehab.
- Clamp Flexibility: Accommodates different Schanz pin diameters (e.g., Ø4.0MM, Ø5.0MM).
- Reusable & Durable: Designed for long-term use and multiple sterilization cycles.
- Precise Correction Capabilities: Useful for angular, translational, and rotational deformity corrections.
