ABSTRACT:
The proposed apparatus for surgical treatment of bones and joints comprises at least two pairs of needles designed to be driven through the juxtaposed bones. The tips of the needles of each pair are secured in at least one brace so that each pair of needles forms a rigid system with the brace, said rigid system being secured on the respective bone being juxtaposed. Said rigid systems are interconnected by two distractors each of which is formed as a split member carrying, in the midportion thereof, a system of two guides with two sliders attached to the respective components of the distractors, said guides being perpendicular to each other and also to the longitudinal axes of the distractor components associated therewith, and the sliders are provided with screw actuators serving to propel said sliders along said guides. The apparatus permits correcting lateral and rotary displacements of the juxtaposed bones, ensuring secure fixation thereof in the compression or distraction position.
