A schematic anteroposterior (AP) view shows a synovial joint between two human (Homo sapiens) long bones with an external fixator (ExFix) rod aligned along the limb and an interposed antibiotic (abx) cement spacer at the joint line. In the anatomical hierarchy, the bones belong to the appendicular skeleton, with the device situated in the periarticular region. In orthopedics and radiology, this surgical construct provides temporary stabilization, preserves joint space, and delivers local antimicrobial therapy during management of osteoarticular infection.
