For the management of segmental diaphyseal bone loss in oncology patients
secondary to radical bone loss and/or resection due to tumors.
Designed for the Humerus, Femur, and Tibia, the intramedullary rods can be fixed with interlong screws without or with
bone cement.
OsteoBridge is a series of intramedullary rods that may be used as either
proximal or distal segments. The segments are designed to be attached
together to form a complete intramedullary rod using two semicircular hollow
attachement shells, the spacer, which are clamped together with multiple
screws to create a complete intramedullary bridge. All components are
manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V Titanium Alloy.
Surgical Technique
- Distal and proximal interlocking nails in different sizes and diameters for an easy proximal and distal pressfit positioning.
- Guiding instruments for secure placement of the interlocking screws with full visibility.
Advantages
- Immediate weight bearing and pain relief.
- Long term stability.
- Opportunity for biologics and or antibiotics to be incorporated into the
system.
