Cylinder pencil case for sterilization and storage of spokes

Abstract

We propose a cylinder-pen for sterilization and storage of spokes used for osteosynthesis. The device corresponds to the sizes of spokes produced by the medical industry and consists of two hollow cylinders: an external one (with a sealing lid) and an internal one. The latter holds 40 spokes and has 5 mm diameter holes in its walls which allow the free flow of boiling water. Once the sterilization of both cylinders is completed, the inner one (containing the spokes) is sealed observing all aseptic rules.
