ABSTRACT:
An external fixation system includes as one of its frame components at least one dynamic coupling which is mounted to a respective frame rod. The coupling includes a sleeve member telescoped over the rod with a stop member on the rod on each side of the sleeve member. The stop member located toward the bone fracture may be adjustably locked to change its position on the rod and thus permit selective controlled sliding movement of the rod in the sleeve member.
