The AOS Temporary External Fixation System is indicated for external fixation of open and/or unstable fractures of the tibia, femur, and spanning of the knee and ankle joints.
The Temporary External Fixation is intended for stabilization where soft tissue injury may preclude the use of other fracture treatments of internal fixation, and is intended to be non-weight bearing.
The modular design of the AOS External Fixation System allows versatility for surgeon preference and frame construct. Composed of MRI compatible material, the system provides radiolucent viewing of the fracture, and is lightweight thereby enhancing patient comfort and postoperative mobility. By excelling on the adept design of each component, the AOS system exhibits a greater degree of versatility by minimizing the number of elements.
