Design And Working Principle Of The Distraction System - KLS Martin group Système de distraction externe 3DX Mode D'emploi

9 Design and Working Principle of the Distraction
System
The 3DX distraction system consists of a distractor body, the two distraction arms attached to
it, and the two pin holding clamps. The two pin pairs to be fixed in the bone (to be ordered
separately) are connected to the distraction system using the pin holding clamps.
Rotating the distraction screw with the patient screwdriver (see section 10.3 "Instrumente",
page 17) initiates the gradual distraction process so that the entire pin holding clamp
assembly, including the pair of pins fixed to it, moves along the distraction arm from posterior
to anterior or from caudal to cranial.
