FIELD: medical equipment.
SUBSTANCE: apparatus has plate, gypsum dressing and wire with thrust platform for creating traction, said wire being positioned within plate by means of threaded bar equipped with slot, sharpened fragments of Kirshner' wires for creating of force counteracting with respect to thrust, said sharpened fragments of wires being set in plate by means of compression threaded bar, and metal plate adapted to be disposed in gypsum dressing and equipped with stepped bends having openings for receiving of threaded bars and with lateral bent portion disposed in middle part and adapted for providing perpendicular passage of wire from thrust platform. Plate is secured to metal plate by means of threaded bars. Apparatus of such construction enables non-injurious mutual compression of fractured bone fragments, optimal for reparative osteogenesis.
EFFECT: increased efficiency in treatment of skew and comminuted shin fractures.
