[An implantable femur distractor for operative leg lengthening (author's transl)].

A N Witt, M Jäger, H Bruns, W Küsswetter.   

Abstract

A new femur distractor has been developed, lengthening the leg. This instrument is electronically controllable and can be implanted totally. It is possible to regulate transcutaneously by radio control the operation "forward motion", "stop" and "backward motion". After testing this instrument in sheep, the lengthening of human femur by this system can be introduced.
