ABSTRACT:
A surgical cast for use in treating bone fractures, especially fractures with pins that extend to a pin-site area, includes an opening at the pin-site area and a window that aligns with the opening. The window has a surface that projects away from the pin-site and defines a clearance space between the cast and the pin-site to avoid any rubbing of the pins by the cast. The window also furnishes clearance at the pin-site for terminal connections to a bone growth stimulator.
