1. Distraction Osteogenesis Devices Are Used In Orthopedic Surgery and Reconstructive Surgery to Repair To Repair Skeletal Deformities Distraction osteogenesis, sometimes referred to as callus distraction, is a method used in orthopedic surgery as well as in reconstructive surgery, to repair skeletal deformities. It is the application of various distraction osteogenesis devices and sculpting techniques to reduce the amount of stress on the bones that results from extreme foot movements, while still maintaining full body movement. It is often combined with bone spurs and other material to create a thicker skin, which reduces friction. This thickened skin also helps increase blood flow, which helps the healing process. This treatment also reduces pain and swelling. Distraction Osteogenesis Devices such as motorized systems like the Fitbone from Wittenstein are used in orthopedic surgery, and oral and maxillofacial surgery to repair skeletal deformities and in reconstructive surgery. Distractor devices are used in distraction osteogenesis to increase bone for children with craniofacial defects. EXOGEN, an ultrasound bone healing system developed by U.S.-based Bioventus, is indicated for the acceleration of fresh fracture heal time, repair following osteotomy, repair in bone transport procedures and repair in distraction osteogenesis procedures.
