Abstract
A limb support is attached to an operating table for the purpose of supporting the upper portion of a lower extremity during operation of a fracture. It includes an oblong, slightly concave body of a material transparent to X-Ray photographs and can be placed in any position in regard to the operation table by being mounted on top of a hand-operated jack. The jack is attached to one end of a horizontal bar which can be moved both in angular and longitudinal directions about its connection to the table by means of a clamp connector, permitting its remaining in position during any required movement of the table.
