Product Overview

The Surgitech Ortho India combines a new concept of an implant with instruments for the treatment of metaphyseal fractures of femur bones. The implant consists of a plate-like device and locking screws which together act as an internal fixator. An internal fixator is a construct where the screws (pins), which are the principal load-transferring elements, are locked in the plate (or frame). The forces are transferred from the bone to the fixator across the screw neck. Therefore, the blood supply of thebone under the plate is preserved as basically no (or only little) contact between the plate and the bone is needed.
