External Fixator: An Important Tool in Orthopedic Implants and Instruments

At Sichuan ChenAnHui Technology Co., Ltd., we specialize in external fixators, among other orthopedic implants and instruments. External fixators are used in the following cases:

1. Bone fractures – during surgery, the external fixator is used to immobilize the bone and allow it to heal properly. It is an essential tool in the treatment of broken or fractured bones.

2. Bone lengthening – using an external fixator, the bone can be slowly lengthened over time. This is commonly used in the treatment of deformities or leg length discrepancies.

3. Bone infections – the external fixator is used as a treatment option in cases of bone infections. It helps in removing dead tissues, allows drainage, and provides support to the bone as it heals.

The external fixator is an external device that uses pins or wires to secure the bone fragments in place. The pins or wires are inserted into the bone and are connected to an external frame. This frame provides the necessary support and stability to the bone, allowing it to heal properly.
