Femur external fixation system UniX®

tubularadult

The Response Ortho UniX Rail Fixator is a low profile alternative for multiplanar deformity correction. The external fixation system is capable of many applications including, but not limited to, limb lengthening (single level and bi-focal), angular corrections and fusions. Fracture fixations, derotational and angular osteotomies and other proximal femur reconstruction procedures are also enabled by the UniX Rail Fixator. Components: Standard Clamp allows fixation of two different C/D units (especially for bi-focal cases) and includes four different screw slots for strong fixation. The K-Wire hole on the clamps is for adjusting the clamp level on the bone segment. Angular Correction Clamp is capable of up to 50° of angular correction (25° from neutral in either direction) for incremental angular correction allowing 1 degree per turn/ click. Translation Clamp offers up to 20mm of medial/lateral translation (10mm from neutral in either direction). It is especially beneficial in extensive lengthening procedures where varus translation is a common occurrence. Acute Correction Clamp allows acute angular correction and includes serrated locking mechanism to provide stronger fixation after the correction. Ring Adapters allow for ring-wire and/or screw fixation in different planes. The system involves a straight ring adapter and an angular ring adapter to fix the ring with a deformity-specific angulation. The UniX Rail Fixator system uses Smart Correction rings to combine ring fixation and unilateral fixation, especially for rotational bifocal femoral deformities. Dynamization Component provides dynamic fixation for faster healing.
