- Optional metatarsal clamp assembly
Ankle Spanning is a single-use external fixator consisting of the following components that are manipulated by the end user: clamps, telescoping rods, a built-in ankle bridge, and half-pin bone screws. This system will be sterile packed in its fully assembled state and will not require any intraoperative assembly by the clinicians. The main clamp bodies will be interconnected to each other with adjustable (telescoping) tubes that allow the clamps to rotate, pivot, and translate with respect to the long axis of the bone. This will allow the clamps to properly reduce the fracture and subsequently rigidly fix the bones in place. The telescoping tubes result in a total range of accommodated pin placement of 235mm. The fully collapsed frame is 190mm long (from the innermost pin location of the tibial clamp to the center of the transfixing pin) while the fully extended frame is 425mm long from outermost pin location of the tibial clamp to the center of the transfixing pin. This length adjustment allows for proper fitment on a wide variety of patient sizes.
