ABSTRACT:
A surgical apparatus for external transosteal fixation of bone fragments and joint ends comprises needles to be driven through the bones being aligned which are secured in braces. The braces are provided with means for fixing and tightening the needles, said means being formed as drive screws cooperating with turn-buckle nuts. There are through axial holes for needles formed in the drive screws, and the tips of the needles extended through said holes are provided with bulges larger in diameter than said holes. The apparatus ensures secure fixation of the needles with a prescribed degree of tension, the latter parameter lending itself to correction in the course of treatment.
