Description

The NexFix Compression Staple is made of stailess steel and is used for internal fixation of fractures, fusions, bone grafts and osteotomies in the bones of the hand and foot. It is designed so the surgeon can control the amount of compression depending on the type of osteotomy and on the patient’s bone quality
