ABSTRACT

Se presenta un prototipo de fijador costal externo construido con duroaluminio maleable mediante la utilización del sistema de cerclaje AO, basado en una experiencia previa con un tórax inestable, en la cual se utilizó el sistema AO con costillas externas fabricadas de yeso y láminas de acero. La evolución de la enferma fue excelente lo que motivó a confeccionar el fijador costal reutilizable, el cual se usó después en otros 2 pacientes con resultados similares, uno de ellos con un tórax batiente con inestabilidad esternal(AU)


A prototype of external costal fixators made of malleable hard aluminum by using the AO cerclage system was presented. It was based on a previous experience with an unstable chest, in which the AO system was used with external ribs made of plaster and steel plates.The excellent evolution of the female patient led to the making of the reusable costal fixator that was also used by 2 other patients with similar results. One of them had a beating thorax with sternal unstability(AU)
