T-Pin -Fixation System for Distal Radius & Distal Ulna Fracture Fixation
FromUnion Surgical
Distal radius fractures are among the most common fractures treated by orthopaedic surgeons. Numerous techniques and implants have been devised to stabilize these fractures. The T-Pin® is a novel instrument designed to stabilize extraarticular distal radius fractures utilizing minimal surgical dissection. The T-Pin® allows for early active wrist range of motion promoting earlier return to functional activities.
