UNIVERSAL FIXATOR- Fix-AS NEW WAY FOR FULL<br />

STABILITY,REHABILITATION AND MAXIMUM COMFORT FOR<br />

PATIENTS<br />

Šabić Nedžad, Poliklinika Dr Šabić, Zenica, Bosnia and Herzegovina<br />

Question:Could one provide a full stability of the bone sequence, the full flexion and more comfort at heavy war<br />

injuries, big bone defects, and deformity corrections (even at the haviest cases)? Since 1985, compression-distraction<br />

method was successfully used in Cantonal Hospital in Zenica. First six years we only used Illizarov fixator, and<br />

last twenty years we are using our own fixator FixAS.<br />

This work will show advantages of FixAS apparatus at large deformation corrections, simultaneous lengthening by<br />

external or internal transport, and deformation correction, heavy war injuries, non union, big bone defects after<br />

tumor resection, lengthenings and other.<br />

Advantages are especially important for solving hip and femur problems, and knee deformation corrections. Our<br />

method provides full comfort during treatment, as well as easy rehabilitation – until full scope of joint movement.<br />

This way, extremity is saved even in heaviest cases, unlike other methods (bone grafting, free flap), which were<br />

more expensive and unformal, often ended by an amputation. This fully satisfies the principle minimum metal,<br />

maximum stability and comfort. Answer: Yes, indeed, it can be achieved – by using FixAS universal fixator!<br />
