FIXUS88 – Hemicalotasis reconstruction

The FIXUS88 H-series is an addition to the FIXUS88 Reconstruction family. The “H-series” is designed for treatment of angular corrections using the hemicallotasis method.

Due to the increasing lifespan and activity level in the ageing population there is a growing need for alternative methods of treatment of degenerative diseases or/and treatment of congenital anomalies. Correction of bone deformities using the hemicallotasis method has particular benefits over more traditional used correction methods; causes less soft-tissue scarring and less distortion of the bone fragments. Specifically, for the Tibia this means; it will make it easier to do a TKA in the future. Combine this with minimal risk of under/over correction due to slow-gradual correction and early weight baring, makes the hemicallotasis procedure with the H-series an excellent choice.
