HJ Hoffmann External Fixation System Trauma Instrument Kit
- The HJ external fixation system (Hoffmann type) is divided into two subgroups for small and large fragments.
- Small fragments use the CF 5.0 rod coupled with SS 3.0-4.0 pins, and large fragments use the CF 8.0 rod coupled with SS 5.0-6.0 pins.
- It is indicated for external fixation of open and/or unstable fractures of the humerus, ulna, radius, tibia, femur, and the elbow, knee, and ankle joints.
- Temporary external fixation is intended for stabilization when soft tissue damage prevents other internal fixation treatments for the fracture, and is designed to be non-weightbearing.

Medical External Fracture Fixation Device
Characteristics of an External Fixator
An external fixator, such as the one shown in the leg and foot, is a medical device used to stabilize fractured or deformed bones from outside the body.
General Characteristics:
External Components: It consists of pins or screws inserted into the bone, connected to external rods or rings that maintain stability.
Stability and Alignment: It helps maintain the fractured bone in the correct position and alignment until it heals, or to make corrections to a limb.
Adjustability: External fixators can be adjusted to change their length, angle, or compression/distraction, facilitating fracture reduction or deformity correction.
Biocompatibility: The materials used, such as stainless steel or titanium, are chosen for their biocompatibility with human tissue.
Temporary or permanent use: They can be used temporarily, pending internal osteosynthesis, or permanently, sometimes combined with minimal osteosynthesis.
Specific characteristics (depending on the type):
Monolateral fixators: Used for periarticular fractures and providing stable fixation.
Hybrid fixators: Combine rings and pins for high mechanical stability and precise correction of deformities.
Tubular fixators: Consisting of clamps, a rail, and a distraction-compression unit, designed to stabilize bone segments.
Advantages:
Less invasive: Requires smaller incisions compared to some internal fixation methods.
Visibility of the injury site: Allows easy access for wound care, particularly useful in open fractures.
Considerations:
Care and follow-up: Regular follow-up is essential to monitor healing and prevent complications, including infections at the pin site.
Exactech Equinoxe Shoulder Prosthesis
The Exactech Equinoxe shoulder prosthesis offers several key features:
Modularity and Flexibility: It is a modular system that allows surgeons to transition from a primary shoulder or hemifracture to a reverse shoulder without removing the humeral stem, thanks to the platform stem.
Anatomical Adjustments: It offers dual eccentricity (humeral head and replicator plate) that allows independent adjustment of medial and posterior offsets, ensuring anatomical orientation of the humeral head.
Various Glenoid Solutions: The system offers a wide range of glenoids (pear-shaped, peg-shaped, keel-shaped, and augmented) to accommodate various bone defects and preserve bone.
Osseointegration Design: For stemless prostheses, it incorporates a 3D-printed structure with optimized porosity, designed to promote osseointegration and biological fixation.
Biomechanical Improvement: The design, particularly for reverse prostheses, aims to lateralize the humerus7 for a more anatomical deltoid envelope and better tension of the remaining rotator cuff, thus improving active rotation.
Exactech Equinoxe Modular Shoulder Prosthesis
Exactech’s Equinoxe® modular shoulder prostheses, pictured, offer several key features:
Modularity: The system is designed to offer high flexibility. A platform humeral stem allows for conversion from a primary or hemifracture shoulder to a reverse shoulder without removing the humeral stem.
Glenoid Solutions: The system offers a wide range of glenoid solutions, including pear-shaped, pegged, keeled, and augmented options, designed to preserve bone and provide initial and biological fixation.
Reverse Biomechanics: The Equinoxe system design aims to lateralize the humerus to create a more anatomically correct deltoid shell, promoting stability and improving active rotation by tensioning the remaining cuff.
Humeral Head: The anatomical stem allows for surgical conversions (e.g., from a total shoulder to a reverse shoulder) without requiring stem removal. Glenoid curvatures allow for the combination of different head and glenoid sizes while maintaining optimal radial offset.
Stemless Technology (for select models): Some models, such as the Equinoxe stemless shoulder, utilize direct metal 3D printing for their manufacturing, providing primary stability.
Surgical Navigation (GPS): The Equinoxe system can be used with GPS navigation to guide the surgeon during implantation, enabling precise positioning of implants and screws.

Biocompatible Coatings for Implants
Orthopedic and spinal implants are characterized by the need for a long service life, which requires implants to resist wear and not cause any adverse effects to their recipient. Ionbond’s Medthin™ coatings have the surface properties necessary to achieve this goal.
Anti-allergy: For patients with particular sensitivity to metals, Medthin™ coatings reduce allergic reactions caused by the release of metal ions. Our biocompatible Medthin™ coatings act as a barrier to metal ions: they inhibit 98% of the Co or Ni ions released by the metal implant.
Reduces wear: Due to their hardness, Medthin™ coatings reduce wear and friction between the implant’s articulating surfaces by up to 70%. This results in a reduction in UHMWPE and metal implant debris, as well as an increase in implant lifespan.
