FIXATION DEVICE FOR IMMOBILIZING LONG OPEN FRACTURE BONES

摘要

1. A device for external attachment for immobilizing pins employed in orthopaedic surgery, comprising at least two bars (1) which are rigid against bending and each bar (1) of which comprises two portions (2A, 2B) placed in coaxial prolongation and able to be displaced relatively with the interposition of a resilient member (7), characterised in that this device includes a means of guidance (3) containing one end portion of each of the two portions (2A, 2B), this means of guidance (3) allowing their relative displacement in translation with a predetermined total amplitude between an initial position of separation and a position of maximum approach only, the resilient member (7) being contained in the means of guidance (3) and arranged in order to be opposed resiliently to this approach.
