4.5/5 mm Locking Proximal Femoral Plate Specification

4.5/5 mm Locking Proximal Femoral Plate Specification
Plates available holes are 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14 and 16.
Plate has combi holes and round holes. Combi holes allow fixation with locking screws in the threaded section and cortex screws in the dynamic compression unit section for compression.
The two proximal plate holes are threaded and accept 7.3 mm Locking Cannulated Screws.
The third locking hole is threaded to accept 5 mm Locking Cannulated Screws. (Necessity of this screw is fracture configuration dependent and should be identified during preoperative planning).
The shaft holes accept 5 mm locking screws in the threaded portion or 4.5 mm cortical screws or 5 mm Locking cancellous screws in the compression portion.
4.5/5 mm Locking Proximal Femoral Plate allow implant placement to address the individual fracture pattern.
Limited-contact surface reduces bone-to-plate contact and helps to preserve the periosteal blood supply.
Choice of different lengths of plate eliminates the need to cut plates.
Plates specifically designed for left or right femurs to accommodate average femoral neck anteversion.
Plate lengths allow spanning of the entire diaphysis in segmental fracture patterns.
Anatomically contoured to approximate the lateral aspect of the proximal femur.
Plates specifically designed for left or right femurs to accommodate average femoral neck anteversion.
Available in both Titanium and Stainless steel.
locking plate increases construct stability, decreases risk of screw back-out and subsequent loss of reduction. It also reduces the need for precise anatomic plate contouring and minimizes the risk of stripped screw holes.
A complete Instruments Set is available for 4.5/5 mm Locking Proximal Femoral Plate. General Instruments are available for this plate such as Plate Bending Press, Plate Holding Forceps, Plate Bending Pliers, Bone Holding Forceps, Bone Elevators, Bone Cutter, Bone Nibbler, Depth Gauge, Sleeve, Screw Driver, Trocar Sleeve etc.

4.5/5 mm Locking Proximal Femoral Plate Uses
4.5/5 mm Locking Proximal Femoral Plate is intended for fractures of the femur including:
Fractures of the trochanteric region, trochanteric simple, trochanterodiaphyseal, multifragmentary pertrochanteric, intertrochanteric reversed or transverse or with additional fracture of the medial cortex.
Fractures of the proximal end of the femur combined with ipsilateral shaft fractures.
Metastatic fracture of the proximal femur.
Osteotomies of the proximal femur.
Plate also for use in fixation of osteopenic bone and fixation of nonunions or malunions.
