Popis: For the external fixation of complex open fractures in Da-Nang, Vietnam, the authors developed a home-made fixator, based on the Orifix system. The model allows correction of axial deviations and may be used for lengthening procedures. Sufficient stability is obtained without the aid of any other device. Weight bearing and sometimes walking are possible. The first cases were successful and are reported here.
