Implants

Osteosynthesis implants are medical devices used to stabilize bone fractures or misalignments. They serve to hold bone fragments in the correct position until the bone has healed naturally.

We offer the following types of osteosynthesis implants:

• Screws:
  Used to pull bone fragments together or to attach plates.
• Plates:
  Used to stabilize larger bone fragments and can be angle-stable or non-angle-stable.
• Nails:
  Mainly inserted into the medullary cavity of long tubular bones to stabilize them.
• Wires:
  Used for temporary fixation of bone fragments, e.g., Kirschner wires and cerclage wires.
• Clamps:
  Used to fix bone fragments or stabilize joints.
• External fixators:
  External devices that are connected to the bone through the skin and stabilize the fracture from the outside.
