DEVICE FOR TREATING EPIPHYSEOLYSIS WITH FRACTURE OF EPIPHYSIS OF LONG TUBULAR BONES Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC A61B17/66 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to medical equipment, and is applied in traumatology and orthopedics. Device contains first module for bone from one side of joint, second module for bone from the other side of joint and threaded bars for connection of said modules. Said first module consists of bone support with wires and wire clamps. Said second module consists of first and second bone support, threaded rods with nuts, connecting said first and second supports, wire clamps, wire holders for wire tightening, at least, one wire holder for console wires, at least, one regulated wire holder for console wires and repositioning module. First support is intended for joint end. Repositioning module has support plate with holes, rod wire clamps for console wires and posts. Posts are intended for installation of support plate on support for joint end. All said supports are made in form of flat rings and/or half-rings with holes. Brackets are used in said wire holders and in repositioning modules. Brackets represent straps with, at least, one hole and tip with thread, installed on one of strap ends. Each rod wire clamp is made with slot for wire and nuts. Rod wire clamps are installed by means of nuts in hole of brackets, with last tip being installed in holes of support plate by means of nuts. Each post is made from connecting threaded rod and two brackets, one of which is installed with tip by means of nuts in hole of support plate, the other by means of nuts - with tip in hole of support for joint end. Connecting threaded rod is installed in holes of said two brackets by means of nuts. Wire holders for tightening wires are made in form of brackets, in holes of which wire clamps are installed and tips of which are installed on second support of second module by means of nuts. Wire holder for console wires is made in form of bracket, in holes of which wire clamps are located, and tips of which are installed in holes for joint end by means of nuts. Regulated wire holder for console wires is made in form of a pair of brackets, one of which has wire clamp in hole and is by means of nuts installed with tip in hole of another bracket, and the last one is by means of nuts fixed in support holes for joint end.

EFFECT: invention ensures fixation and reposition of epiphysis fragments which results in creation of favourable anatomical and functional conditions for recovery of injured growth zone with further normal course of physiological processes of growth and preservation of extremity biomechanics due to possibility of eliminating displacement of fragments in all planes due to possibility of eliminating displacement of fragments in all planes in the process of treatment without apparatus remounting.
