ABSTRACT:
An axial compression device for the fixation of a fractured bone comprises an assembly including a lag screw and a retaining member secured to bone fragments on opposite sides of a fracture and an angled slide member adapted to be connected to the lag screw and cooperable with the retaining member for providing a compressive force between the bone fragments. The lag screw and angled slide member are especially adapted to achieve simultaneous fixation of a secondary fracture which may also be present.
