A bone fixation apparatus comprises an implant 1 for insertion into a first bone region 25, the implant having at least first and second attachment regions, and a plurality of fixation members 2, fixation members being arranged to link the attachment regions to a second bone region 26, such that the first and second bone regions are held in a stable relation. A highly suitable implant 1 comprises a pin, the fixation members 2 comprising stiff wires. The wires may be guided through holes or slots in the pin 1. The fixation apparatus is particularly suitable for the treatment of humeral, low femoral shaft and femoral supracondylar fractures. <IMAGE> |
