Maxi hybrid radiolucent fixator kit

The Maxi hybrid radiolucent fixator kit is suitable for the treatment of patients weighing up to 25 kg, and contains all the components to perform some circular and hybrid frame constructs.

The radiolucent materials with which the circular and linear components are produced allow both intraoperative and postoperative radiographic visualization of the fracture area even when it is peri or juxta-articular, unlike metal frames that cause radiographic interference.

The threaded pins in the kit are of the Screwpin type, ie with the same characteristics of the orthopedic screws. They are self-tapping but not self-drilling, and have the same screw diameters, so that the diameter of the drill to be used is the same as that used for screws of the same diameter.

The K wires contained in the kit are of the “half-tip” type, ie with the particular shape of the tip capable of perforating also the most resistant cortex with relative ease, in order to reduce the risk of thermonecrosis around the wire, thus increasing a lot their bone holding.

The Polilock supports in the kit allow the K-wires to be anchored to the threaded bars of the frame, drastically reducing the need to add linear elements to the assembly in order to support K-wires outside the ring plane.
