Non-reduced hip luxation.
Function
CoxaFlex® reliably centers the hip
joints in an adjustable, natural position.
It maintains the muscles of the lower

and circulatory problems of the joint.
Additionally, the orthosis allows for
widely unimpaired hygienic care and
unproblematic radiographic depiction of
the joint even while worn.
