Bone stimulation system

A system for stimulating the osteogenesis of a traumatized bone, the medical system comprising:

• a bone stabilizing implant, which is adapted to be fixed to the traumatized bone, and
• a first component part comprising a first electrode,
• an isolating element, which is mounted at the first component part,
• a second component part comprising a second electrode, which is mounted at the isolating element such that the first electrode and the second electrode are electrically isolated from each other, and
• a power generation unit, which is electrically coupled both to the first electrode and to the second electrode, wherein the first component part is designed to be attached to the implant in such a manner that the second component part intrudes in a region defined by a trauma of the bone.

A method for stimulating the osteogenesis of a fractured traumatized bone comprising:

• implanting a fracture fixation device;
• inserting an electrical stimulation element into the opening of the fracture fixation device, the electrical stimulation element having a body with a first electrode in a first body portion and a second electrode in a second body portion, the first and second body portions being electrically isolated, the first body portion contacting the fracture fixation device and the second body portion intruding in a region defined by a trauma of the bone;
• and
• connecting an electrical current generating source to the first and second electrodes.
