Abstract Of The Disclosure A splint for a human patient's leg, especially for emergency use, has a housing tube and a base tube telescoped for length adjustment. A holder secures a selected length. A base bar on the end of the base tube fits approximately against the patient's ischial tuberosity. An ankle tube telescopes on the housing tube and is movable against the tension of a spring at one end anchored within and to the housing tube. The other end of the spring is joined by a cable to the ankle tube after passing around a pulley within and journalled in the housing tube. An ankle bar extends transversely on the end of the ankle tube and does not project from but lies well within the outline or compass of the patient. Suitable cravat loops are provided on the base bar and on the ankle bar. An operating handle assists in displac- ing the ankle tube and the housing tube to adjust the tension of the spring to an indicated amount.
