METHOD AND DEVICE FOR COMBINED OSTHEOSYNTHESIS Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC A61B17/56 A61B17/60 A61B17/80 

FIELD: medicine; orthopedics; traumatic surgery.

SUBSTANCE: method and device can be used for curing fractures in long tubular bones of lower extremities. Method is based upon reposition of fractures of damaged extremity corresponding to Method of "submerged" ostheosynthesis. Fragments of damaged extremity are fixed by means of described device for combined ostheosynthesis; axial load is prescribed for patient two days after operation. External fixation of damaged segment of extremity is performed by means of two rings and three needles attached to any ring. One needle is introduced along crossing line of frontal plane and horizontal plane of ring. Two other needles are introduced at same frontal plane at angle being equal to +5° and -5° with horizontal plane of ring. Device for combined ostheosynthesis has on-bone fixer and external fixation apparatus. External fixation apparatus is made of two rings and three needles attached to any ring. One needle is disposed in openings of any ring on line of crossing of frontal plane and horizontal plane of ring. Two other needle s are mounted onto vertical arm-pieces, fixed in any ring, for disposition of needles in the same frontal plane at angle, which equals to+5° and -5° correspondingly to horizontal plane of ring.

EFFECT: improved stability of safe usage of support function the next after operation.
