<strong>Dynamic</strong> <strong>Joint</strong> <strong>Distractor</strong> <strong>II</strong><br />
<strong>External</strong> <strong>Fixation</strong> <strong>System</strong><br />
• Modular Hinged <strong>System</strong><br />
for the Elbow
Introduction<br />
The DJD <strong>II</strong> is a <strong>Dynamic</strong> Elbow <strong>Joint</strong><br />
<strong>Distractor</strong> which extends the range<br />
of the Hoffmann ® <strong>II</strong> Compact<br />
<strong>System</strong> to treat post-traumatic elbow<br />
stiffness as well as some acute elbow<br />
trauma cases. Plus, it provides the<br />
same advantages as the Hoffmann® <strong>II</strong><br />
Compact <strong>System</strong> in terms of ease of<br />
use, versatility, and patient comfort.<br />
The two principal goals of the DJD <strong>II</strong><br />
are to allow active or passive motion<br />
of the elbow and to protect the elbow<br />
articular surfaces and the collateral<br />
ligaments. Motion is allowed by a<br />
hinge which replicates the elbow’s<br />
axis of rotation, while an integrated<br />
distraction mechanism prevents the<br />
articular surfaces from damaging<br />
each other.<br />
The DJD <strong>II</strong> may be used in<br />
either a monolateral or bilateral<br />
configuration. This allows a great<br />
deal of flexibility in use and<br />
indications.<br />
Whatever the indications, the DJD <strong>II</strong><br />
allows mobilization of the elbow<br />
providing for earlier rehabilitation,<br />
facilitating the patient’s daily tasks<br />
and increasing his/her comfort.<br />

Relative Indications & Contraindications<br />
Trauma Indications<br />
When protection of the articular<br />
surface is required:<br />
1) Coronoid fracture with or without<br />
fixation;<br />
2) Olecranon fracture with tenuous<br />
fixation;<br />
3) Distal humerus articular fractures;<br />
4) Unstable ulnohumeral joint<br />
after acute collateral ligament<br />
disruption;<br />
5) Combination of instability<br />
with any of the above fractures<br />
(complex instability).<br />
Reconstruction Indications<br />
As an adjunct for individuals<br />
undergoing release of stiff elbow.<br />
This is most common in the posttraumatic<br />
condition, but occasionally<br />
is used with inflammatory stiffness.<br />
The use of distraction is generally<br />
indicated in these circumstances:<br />
1) There has been a significant<br />
amount of dissection<br />
suggesting that maintaining the<br />
intraoperative motion will be<br />
difficult.<br />
2) If the pathology has modified<br />
the joint contour requiring<br />
refashioning of the joint surface,<br />
with or without an interposition<br />
membrane.<br />
3) When an interposition procedure<br />
is performed.<br />
4) If the collateral ligament has<br />
been reconstructed or repaired in<br />
association with the release.<br />

Contraindications<br />
1) Inexperience with the use<br />
of external fixation devices<br />
is considered a relative<br />
contraindication. Application<br />
of the DJD <strong>II</strong> is technically<br />
demanding and requires accurate<br />
placement of the skeletal pins.<br />
2) If uncertainty exists with regard<br />
to the anatomic location of the<br />
neurovascular structures due to<br />
post-traumatic destruction of the<br />
joint, the DJD <strong>II</strong> should be used<br />
only with extreme caution. The<br />
pins, under these circumstances,<br />
may be inserted under direct<br />
vision.<br />
3) Local sepsis is a relative<br />
contraindication to the<br />
application of the DJD <strong>II</strong>.<br />
4) The presence of some internal<br />
fracture fixation devices in the<br />
distal humerus or proximal ulna.<br />
5) Pre-emptive medical condition,<br />
e.g. severe osteoporosis.<br />
6) See package insert for a complete<br />
list of potential adverse effects and<br />
contraindications. The surgeon<br />
must discuss all relevant risks,<br />
including the finite lifetime of<br />
the device, with the patient, when<br />
necessary.
Features & Benefits<br />
The DJD <strong>II</strong> system allows you to build<br />
a unilateral or bilateral Low-Profile,<br />
Stable Frame with just a few simple,<br />
modular components and instruments.<br />
The DJD <strong>II</strong> Body is designed to<br />
replicate the elbow’s axis of rotation,<br />
which allows Natural Mobilization of<br />
the joint. This mobility will help the<br />
patient recover with reduced risk of<br />
stiffness.<br />

An integrated <strong>Joint</strong> Distraction<br />
Mechanism helps bring the joint<br />
back to anatomical position, which<br />
will prevent the articular surfaces<br />
from damaging each other.<br />
The system offers Independent Pin<br />
Placement to adapt to the anatomy<br />
and avoid neurovascular damage.<br />
With the patented “Snap Fit”<br />
couplings, it is easy to adapt or adjust<br />
the frame as needed. It is simple to<br />
add or remove a rod from the frame.<br />
ø3.0 and ø4.0mm Self-Drilling<br />
Apex® Pins allow easy insertion with<br />
out pre-drilling, which will Save Time<br />
in the O.R.
Features & Benefits<br />
DJD <strong>II</strong> Body<br />
The DJD <strong>II</strong> Body is designed to<br />
provide strength, while being light<br />
weight and low profile. This adds to<br />
patient comfort and ease-of-use.<br />
• The Body is composed of two<br />
ø5mm Stainless Steel Rods<br />
linked together by a hinge, which<br />
includes an integrated distraction<br />
mechanism to distract the elbow.<br />
• The ø5mm Rods are compatible<br />
with the Hoffmann® <strong>II</strong> Compact<br />
Pin to Rod and Rod to Rod<br />
Couplings. These couplings are<br />
designed to enable independent<br />
pin placement, which is an<br />
important advantage in reducing<br />
the risk of neurovascular injury.<br />
• The Body replicates the anatomical<br />
axis of rotation of the elbow. To<br />
do this, insert a ø3mm Reference<br />
Pin into the access of rotation,<br />
and simply slide the bored hinge<br />
of the DJD <strong>II</strong> Body onto the pin.<br />
After the frame is constructed,<br />
remove the reference pin. By<br />
this technique, there are no pins<br />
within the joint, which limits<br />
the risk of joint infection.<br />

Couplings<br />
Hoffmann ® <strong>II</strong> Compact<br />
Pin to Rod Coupling<br />
Independent pin placement is a key<br />
factor to successful elbow surgery<br />
where complex anatomy dictates the<br />
pin insertion areas. The Pin to Rod<br />
Coupling is specifically designed<br />
to provide the freedom of singlepin<br />
placement with ease-of-use.<br />
• The coupling is designed to connect<br />
ø3mm or ø4mm Apex® Pins to the<br />
ø5mm rod of the DJD <strong>II</strong> Body.<br />
• The coupling is designed with the<br />
patented “Snap Fit” mechanism,<br />
which allows easy frame assembly<br />
and intra-operative adjustments.<br />
• The coupling gives optimal locking<br />
and rotational strength while<br />
remaining light and low-profile.<br />
Hoffmann ® <strong>II</strong> Compact<br />
Rod to Rod Coupling<br />
Sometimes, it is necessary to lock<br />
the DJD <strong>II</strong> to prevent movement<br />
shortly after surgery. This can easily<br />
be done by adding an additional<br />
ø5mm Rod which bridges the<br />
proximal and distal rods of the<br />
DJD <strong>II</strong> Body as illustrated here.<br />
The Rod to Rod Coupling’s “Snap Fit”<br />
technology allows you to connect<br />
and remove the ø5mm Locking<br />
Rod without disrupting the<br />
overall frame stability.<br />

Features & Benefits<br />
Bilateral Frame Construct<br />
The DJD <strong>II</strong> may be applied to both the<br />
lateral and medial side of the elbow.<br />
This is helpful if a high degree of<br />
stability is needed.<br />
In this frame construct, a ø3mm<br />
Smooth Transfixing Pin is used to<br />
reference the anatomical axis of<br />
rotation. After this is inserted, two<br />
DJD <strong>II</strong> Bodies are positioned on either<br />
side of the elbow, and the frames are<br />
built accordingly.<br />
As with the lateral frame, the reference<br />
pin is removed after the frames are<br />
built, giving range of motion and<br />
reduced risk of joint infection.<br />
