FIELD: medicine, particularly, traumatology; may be used in treatment of fractures. SUBSTANCE: injured segment is fastened at least in two points at extreme levels of injured segment or joining. Both points are rigidly fixed at preset spacing from each other along longitudinal axis of injured segment. Rigidly fastened in one of these points is proximal end of injured segment. Distal end of injured segment is fastened in some other point to prevent forward displacements and displacements in perpendicular plane. Repositioning force is applied in direction opposite to that of displacement. In cases of intraarticular fractures, levels of fastening are located above and below articular slit. After coincidence of fragments, repositioning and additional application of forces are maintained for preset time interval. In fixing, three fixing areas are formed which are not located on one straight line. Two fixing areas are located at the level of segment fastening. EFFECT: prevented displacement of fragments in early and later periods. 19 cl, 7 dwg
