Intramedullary Locking Cylinder Fixator 01/08-KF for Enhanced Bone Healing

The lockable intramedullary cylindrical fixator is designed for intramedullary lockable osteosynthesis in the treatment of injuries and diseases of the upper and lower extremities. Metaepiphyseal fractures of tubular bones, prevention of pathological fractures of periarticular section of tubular bones, treatment of acquired and congenital deformities of distal sections of lower limbs. Secondary fixation in the bone is possible due to the rough surface of the fixator coating and stabilisation of the opposite end part of the fixator on the bone diaphysis. The design features of the fixator and simple osteosynthesis technique exclude the damage of neurovascular formations, rotator cuff of the shoulder, and implant migration. Calcium phosphate coating on the titanium alloy of the fixator suppresses increased bone resorption, stimulates bone formation or normalises both processes of bone remodelling, which shortens consolidation time.
