Setting device for tubular bone fractures Abstract The setting device for tubular bone fractures (3,4) consists of a longitudinally extended flattened setting element (20) and of bone screws (10), which in each case are connected to one other by means of a screw (11) and a cone (16) in addition to a taper segment section (15). The setting element (20) has an essentially rectangular cross-section of tissue-compatible high-density material, in particular of implant steel. In each of the two end sections (21) of the setting element (20), at least two bores are provided, which extend through the opposite wide sides thereof. The bone screws (10) are guided through these bores. The setting element (20) consists integrally of the two relatively rigid end pieces (21) and a connection piece (31) lying therebetween. This connection piece (31) is, in comparison with the end sections (21), elastic as its cross-section is smaller than that of the end sections (21). The compact setting device formed in this way can be implanted under the skin and enables transverse forces as well as moments of flexion and torsion in the area of the fracture to be eliminated, without the implantation causing additional circulatory disurbances. Further, the normal force in the fracture area can be adjusted.
