Description

Orthofix ISKD Limb Lengthener. ISKD - Intramedullary Skeletal Kinetic Distractor. The ISKD is intended for limb lengthening of the tibia and femur.

Reason

There is a possibility that the ISKD limb lengthener may stop distracting post-operatively during treatment, which may result in premature bone consolidation (limb not achieving the desired length) leading to revision surgery to remove and/or replace the device.
