External fixators India Resolve external bone
injuries with quality fixator systems Orthopedic
surgeons use the external fixators to fix injured
bones externally. A main purpose of using these
fixators is to stabilize the bone for its
smoother healing. The soft issues also properly
stabilized using the external fixators. In fact,
the surgeons use these fixators in more than a
dozen ways to treat fixing of a bone injury
externally. External fixators India manufacturers
make and supply entire range of the fixators
with global quality parameters met fully.

  • How external fixator system works
  • The external fixator system is actually involves
    inserting of certain pins through the skin up to
    the bone. Then, an external frame holds these
    pins tightly at one place. When a patient comes
    to the surgeon with a broken bone, it may be
    that an external fixator is used to first
    stabilize the bone injury. A small incision into
    the patients skin is made so that the metal pins
    and screws can be inserted. There is a bar set
    outside of the skin. The pins are then attached
    to the bar to secure the bone in place. For this,
    metal screws, pins, rods and plates can be used.
  • The orthopedic surgery process involving external
    fixators starts with digging holes into a skin
    which has no injuries. This skin area is just
    near to the injured bones. The surgeon then
    inserts special bolts and wires into the hole. A
    rod and a curved metal piece are generally used
    to join the bolts outside of the injured bone
    area.
  • The surgeon performs the surgery first by giving
    a general anesthesia to the patient. But the
    patient does not feel much pain when the
    external fixator is removed, eliminating the need
    for any anesthesia.
  • Conditions for using the fixators
  • The surgeons use the external fixators to treat
    open fractures. But bone injuries are not the
    sole cases where these fixator systems are used.
    The fact is that the system has many more uses
    for the patients. For example, many people
    suffer from short limbs. The surgeons use the
    external fixators India systems to lengthen the
    limbs as an effective solution. For example,
    people often want to lengthen their short legs a
    bit. They get treated using the external
    fixators. Some patients have thigh bones cut
    diagonally due to some surgical process. Such
    patients can depend on external fixators for
    reshaping and lengthening of their thighs.
  • To lengthen the limbs, the surgeon will place
    external fixator pins and wires by the side of
    the limb. Then, the two bones are pushed apart
    in a slow and steady manner each day.
  • Modern surgeons use external fixators in so many
    cases ranging from bone fracture to bone
    reshaping. We can list some of the cases where
    patients can benefit from external fixators.
  • Pelvic ring disruptions
  • Pediatric fractures
  • Limb lengthening
  • Infection or nonunion related fractured
