Abstract

Bone fixators for securing and/or repairing fractures and/or other defects of a distal radius and wrist. The bone fixators may include, among others, (1) a distal mounting element configured to be mounted in a metacarpal bone, or other hand bone, (2) a proximal mounting element configured to be mounted in the radius, the ulna, or other arm bone, (3) a distal member configured to be secured to the distal mounting element, (4) a proximal member configured to be secured to the proximal mounting element, and/or (5) a coupling, connecting the proximal member and the distal member, configured to allow immobilization, as well as adjustable flexion, rotation, and/or translation of the distal member relative to the proximal member.
