Specifications

• Available in both Stainless Steel and Titanium material.

• The oval-shaped hole is designed to create dynamic pressure between the fractured bone fragments.
• Narrow Limited Contact Dynamic Compression Plate has the advantage of reduced impairment of periosteal blood supply due to limited plate-periosteum contact. It reduces plate-bone contact and creates uniform strength along the plate. Reduction of the plate-bone contact minimizes the area of bone and minimizes periosteum that is damaged as a result of pressure and improves the potential for healing. The uniform strength of the plate allows smooth plate contouring and minimizes the affects of stress concentration from the plate holes without compromising overall plate strength.

• Plates available with 4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17 & 18 holes.

• All holes of the plate allow 4.5 mm cortical screws and end holes of the plate allow 4.0 mm cancellous screws.
• Fixation with 4.5 & 6.5mm screws.

• Undercuts are designed for vascular preservation

• The end holes can be used for cancellous bone screws.
• The LC-DCP holes allow compression in both directions of the longitudinal axis.
• Indication: As a neutralization and tension band plate on the tibia (not intended for the femur).

Indications for use

4.5mm Narrow Limited Contact Dynamic Compression Plate indicated for fixation of-various long bones, such as the humerus, tibia and femur. These are also used in the fixation of peri-prosthetic fractures, osteopenic bone and fixation of nonunions or malunions in adult patients.
