The Vilensky splint is a customizable abduction orthosis designed to gently separate a child's legs. It features a telescoping bar with a central screw mechanism and adjustable cuffs secured with laces. The cuffs are positioned on the lower third of the legs, allowing for precise adjustment of limb separation to address developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) and other conditions. This splint can be used independently or in conjunction with other orthoses (such as the Mirzoeva or Koshlya splints) as part of a comprehensive treatment plan. The actual color of the splint may vary from the image shown.
The Vilensky splint is indicated for infants and young children (2 weeks to 1 year old) with:
