Overview
The 4.5 mm L-Buttress Locking Plate is a premium orthopedic implant engineered for the stabilization of complex metaphyseal and peri-articular fractures. Designed with an L-shaped profile, this plate provides exceptional buttress support, making it particularly effective for fractures of the distal femur, proximal tibia, and other anatomical regions requiring reinforced fixation. Manufactured from high-grade stainless steel or titanium alloy, it offers superior durability, stability, and long-term performance during the healing process.
Key Features
L-Shaped Buttress Design:
The L-configuration delivers enhanced support to unstable fracture fragments, preventing collapse and ensuring proper anatomical alignment.
Robust 4.5 mm Locking System:
Equipped with precisely machined locking holes, the plate ensures angular stability for improved fixation, even in compromised or osteoporotic bone.
High-Strength Material:
Crafted from premium titanium alloy or medical-grade stainless steel, the implant provides excellent mechanical strength while remaining lightweight and biocompatible.
Anatomical Contouring:
Pre-contoured to match natural bone anatomy, the plate reduces the need for intraoperative bending and enhances implant-to-bone conformity.
Hybrid Screw Compatibility:
Supports both 4.5 mm locking screws and 4.5 mm cortical screws, allowing surgeons to customize fixation based on specific fracture needs.
Minimized Soft Tissue Irritation:
Smooth edges and a low-profile design help reduce soft tissue disruption and support minimally invasive surgical techniques.
Indications for Use
-
Metaphyseal and peri-articular fractures
-
Comminuted fractures requiring strong buttress support
-
Fractures needing angular-stable internal fixation
-
Osteoporotic or poor-quality bone fractures
-
Complex trauma or revision surgeries
Benefits
Superior Stability:
The locking mechanism reduces micro-motion at the fracture site, promoting faster and more predictable healing.
Reduced Risk of Hardware Failure:
Angular stability minimizes screw loosening and plate deformation, ensuring secure long-term fixation.
Optimized Surgical Efficiency:
The pre-contoured L-design simplifies positioning and reduces the need for extensive manipulation during surgery.
Enhanced Clinical Outcomes:
By maintaining fracture alignment and providing rigid fixation, the plate supports early mobilization and improved recovery results.
