The Integra External Fixation System half pin bone screws are manufactured from stainless steel and are secured to the bone segment. The half pins come with both self-tapping and self-drilling design features. They are intended for the treatment of bone conditions including leg lengthening, osteotomies, arthrodesis, fracture fixation, and other bone conditions amenable to treatment by use of external fixation.
An assembly of devices designed to stabilize fractured bones, other than those in the vertebral column, to promote treatment and healing. It typically consists of an external plastic and/or metallic fixator (a framework) and other external and/or implantable components such as clamps, rods, rings, cams, bushings, collars, bolts and nuts; it may also include some instrumentation (e.g., screw drivers, wrenches, drills). It is used mainly to help the healing of long bones such as the femur, tibia and humerus, as well as fractures of the wrist, elbow, knee, hip and ankle, joint fusions, and limb lengthening. This is a reusable device.
