SURGICAL DEVICE FOR IMMOBILIZING A PATIENT'S OPERATED-ON ANKLE

摘要

The inventions aims at immobilizing an ankle (C) during a surgical procedure on this ankle, using a device (1 ) which is not very invasive and can be used for surgical procedures of various kinds, particularly in terms of the route via which these procedures are tackled. To this end, the device comprises a plate (10) on which the plantar face of the foot (P) associated with the operated-on ankle can rest, a rigid frame (20) on which the leg (J) associated with this ankle can rest, and mechanical means (30) for adjusting the relative positioning between foot and leg, these means being adapted both to connect the plate and the frame such that they can move and to lock them reversibly relative to one another.
