Femoral Arch 90° / 120° is a structural component designed for use within Orthopedic External Fixation systems. It provides an Arch-Shaped Frame Component that can be integrated with other External Fixator elements to create a Fixation Construct suitable for the femoral region according to the surgical plan and the design of the fixation system.
The range is available in two primary Arch Geometries: 90° and 120°, providing different configurations during Preoperative Frame Planning and assembly of the External Fixation System. Each Femoral Arch features multiple Connection Holes and Elongated Slots distributed along the component body, providing multiple attachment points for compatible Connecting Rods, Clamps, or Fixation Interfaces according to the System Configuration.
Both the Femoral Arch 90° and Femoral Arch 120° are available in three sizes: 160, 180, and 200 mm, resulting in a total of 6 Product Configurations.
These options support selection of the appropriate Arch Configuration according to Femoral Anatomy, Required Frame Clearance, Fixation Site, Position of Bone Fixation Elements, and External Fixator Construct requirements.
The 90° range is listed under the general reference AMS 602.090, while the 120° range is listed under AMS 602.120. Each size carries an individual Cat. No. and GTIN Number, supporting Product Identification, Traceability, Procurement, Surgical Inventory Management, and Stock Control.
Product Description
A Femoral Arch is an arched Structural Frame Component used within selected External Skeletal Fixation systems as part of the external frame surrounding the target anatomical region.
It may be integrated with other system components according to the following general relationship:
Bone Fixation Element → Clamp / Connector → Femoral Arch → Connecting Frame Components
The Arch functions as a structural platform featuring multiple Connection Points that allow compatible External Fixation components to be arranged according to the clinical requirements and planned Fixation Construct.
The product family is available as:
- Femoral Arch 90°
- Femoral Arch 120°
with three sizes available for each configuration.
Product Components and Design
- Curved Femoral Arch Body
The main structural body of the component, designed with a Curved / Arch-Shaped Geometry to function as a structural element within the External Fixation Frame.
- Multiple Connection Holes
The Arch features multiple holes distributed along its body, providing several attachment points for compatible fixation components.
- Elongated Connection Slots
The design incorporates Elongated Slots in addition to circular holes, providing additional Connection Geometry within the fixation system.
The provided table does not specify the dimensions of these slots or the exact components intended for each opening.
- 90° / 120° Geometry
The range is available in two configurations:
90° and 120°
Each represents a different Arch Geometry within the Product Family.
- Size-Specific Design
Each configuration is available in three sizes:
160 / 180 / 200 mm
Product Use
Femoral Arch 90° / 120° is used within compatible Orthopedic External Fixation systems to form part of the fixation frame used in the femoral region.
Depending on the approved system indications and IFU, it may be incorporated into applications such as:
- Femoral External Fixation
- External Fracture Stabilization
- Bone Segment Stabilization
- Modular External Fixation Constructs
- Orthopedic Reconstruction Procedures
- Frame-Based Femoral Fixation
- Selected Limb Reconstruction applications when approved within the fixation system
Selection of the appropriate Arch Configuration depends on:
- Femoral Anatomy
- Anatomical Region
- Required Frame Clearance
- Fixation Site
- Position of Pins / Wires
- External Fixator Geometry
- Preoperative Frame Planning
- Intraoperative Frame Assembly
The Final Construct should be determined by a Qualified Orthopedic Surgeon in accordance with the approved Surgical Technique and IFU.
